Collegio di Spagna, Medieval university college in Bologna, Italy
The Collegio di Spagna features a two-story structure with arcades surrounding a central courtyard and displays Renaissance architectural elements throughout the building.
Cardinal Gil Álvarez Carrillo de Albornoz established this institution in 1364 to provide accommodation for Spanish students studying at the University of Bologna.
The college maintains its tradition of hosting Spanish students in Bologna, strengthening the educational and cultural connections between Italy and Spain since the 14th century.
The exterior of the building remains open for viewing, while the interior spaces are reserved exclusively for resident students and authorized personnel.
The Saint Clemente chapel contains a mid-15th-century altarpiece created by Marco Zoppo, representing the artistic heritage preserved within the college walls.
