Collegio Borromeo, University college in Pavia, Italy.
The Collegio Borromeo features Mannerist architecture with two internal courtyards, multiple student rooms, conference halls, and a chapel dedicated to St. Justina.
Founded in 1561 by Cardinal St. Charles Borromeo, the college was designed by architect Pellegrino Tibaldi to provide accommodation for students with economic difficulties.
The college library maintains over 40,000 volumes, including texts from the 15th to 19th centuries, supporting studies in history, philosophy, and literature.
Students gain admission through competitive examinations, testing their academic abilities, foreign language proficiency, and maintaining high academic standards throughout their stay.
The Horti Borromaici, an urban park connected to the college, transformed from agricultural land into a public space displaying contemporary art exhibitions.
