The facade of the Giureconsulti Palace in Milan.
Located in the heart of Milan, in Piazza Mercanti, the Palazzo dei Giureconsulti is a magnificent example of 16th-century Mannerist architecture. Its construction began in 1562, designed by architect Vincenzo Seregni, commissioned by Pope Pius IV, born Giovanni Angelo Medici.
The palace was built on the site of a previous 13th-century building, which was demolished to make way for the new structure. A distinctive feature of the palace is the civic tower, originally built by Napo Torriani, which was incorporated into the new project as a bell tower. The bell, known as the “Zavataria,” was rung to announce public events such as executions.
The building initially served as the seat of the College of Noble Doctors, an institution that trained politicians and lawyers. Over the centuries, the palace has housed various institutions, including the Stock Exchange, the Telegraph, and the Banca Popolare di Milano. Since 1911, it has been owned by the Milan Chamber of Commerce.
During World War II, the palace suffered severe damage from bombing, but was restored in the 1980s under the direction of Gianni Mezzanotte. This restoration equipped the palace with modern technological equipment, making it a prestigious multifunctional center for events and conferences.
Today, the Palazzo dei Giureconsulti continues to be a landmark for the city of Milan, hosting cultural events, conferences, and business meetings. Its strategic location, just steps from the Duomo, makes it an unmissable destination for those visiting the city.

The throne of the Royal Palace in Genoa.
Palazzo Stefano Balbi (better known as the Royal Palace) is an imposing structure in the historic center of Genoa, built in the early 17th century and listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site for about ten years.
In 1823, the Genoese sold the palace to the Savoy family, who used it as an official residence. They brought new furnishings to add to the already sumptuous ones previously present… of course, a throne was a must, which is still preserved in one of the state rooms.
