Palazzo di Giustizia

Corso di Porta Vittoria, Milan, Italy

 

The Palazzo di Giustizia, designed by Marcello Piacentini, was built between 1932 and 1940 to replace the old palace in Piazza Beccaria and to give Justice a unified and monumental seat. Piacentini responded to the requests of the regime with a building that is isolated from from surrounding urban developments, being both monumental and imposing. 1200 rooms and 65 courtrooms are present on this trapezoid plot, spread over four floors around a courtyard of honour and 12 mini courtyards with axial symmetry. The large windows with bronze fixtures and the walls entirely inn stone from Val Masino, distinguish the external facade. Inside there are the decorations in relief and the frescoes by many different artists among the designer's contemporaries (Sironi, Pini, Severini, Manzu, Carra, Martini)
