Palazzo delle Scuole Palatine, Baroque palace in Piazza Mercanti, Milan, Italy.

The Palazzo delle Scuole Palatine presents a symmetrical facade with classical architectural elements, statues, and decorative stone carvings from the 17th century.

Carlo Alberto Buzzi designed this educational institution in 1644 to replace an earlier structure that burned down in the medieval center of Milan.

The palace housed Milan's most prestigious school, where scholars like Augustine of Hippo and Cesare Beccaria taught various academic disciplines.

The building stands at coordinates 45.46485°N, 9.18735°E in central Milan, near multiple transportation connections and commercial establishments.

A statue of Ausonius accompanies a plaque featuring his epigram that declares Milan as the 'New Rome' of the fourth century.
