Gallia, Renaissance Revival building in Strasbourg, France.
The Gallia building displays northern European architectural elements with facades constructed from Vosges sandstone and Siegersdorf bricks on the banks of Ill river.
Built between 1883 and 1885 for Germania insurance companies, the structure changed its name to Gallia in 1918 when Alsace-Lorraine returned to France.
The building houses France's first secular university restaurant, managed by the General Federation of Strasbourg Students Association since 1927.
Following renovations from 2015 to 2017 costing 14 million euros, the building now contains modern student accommodations with updated safety standards.
The central section originally featured a prominent gable that was lost during World War II when student activities relocated to Clermont-Ferrand.
