Palace of Justice, Courthouse in Prati district, Rome, Italy
The Palace of Justice stands along the Tiber River, displaying an eclectic architectural style with travertine limestone covering and bronze decorations throughout its exterior.
Construction of this judicial building began in 1888 and continued until 1910 under architect Guglielmo Calderini, following Rome's designation as capital of the Kingdom of Italy.
The Hall of the Supreme Court contains extensive frescoes initiated by Cesare Maccari and later completed by his student Paride Pascucci between 1909 and 1918.
This courthouse functions as the seat of Italy's Supreme Court of Cassation and houses the Judicial Public Library, with entry restrictions due to ongoing legal proceedings.
During foundation work, workers discovered ancient Roman sarcophagi and the remains of Crepereia Tryphaena with her articulated ivory doll from 150-170 AD.
