Palazzo Campanella

Palazzo Campanella, Regional council headquarters in Reggio Calabria, Italy.

Palazzo Campanella is the seat of the Regional Council of Calabria, spanning eight floors with around 36,000 square meters (387,500 sq ft) of space. Metal walkways connect different sections of the building, creating a unified interior circulation system.

Palazzo Campanella stands on a 23,000 m² site in Via Cardinale Portanova where the Panella barracks once housed the 20th Brescia Infantry Regiment, disbanded in 1942 after the fighting at El Alamein. The regional council building that replaced it was named after the Calabrian philosopher Tommaso Campanella and is nicknamed l'Astronave by Reggio residents.

The building is named after Tommaso Campanella, the Calabrian philosopher, and is nicknamed "the Spaceship" by Reggio residents because of its glass facades. Its conference rooms carry the names of Giuditta Levato, Nicholas Green and Federica Monteleone, a sixteen-year-old from Vibo Valentia who died in 2007.

The building stands on Via Cardinale Portanova, on the north-eastern edge of Reggio Calabria's historic centre, on a site of about 23,000 m². The Nicholas Green hall on the ground floor has its own entrance, so it can be reached independently of the rest of the palace. The library opened to the public under the 2003 regulations and mainly serves students of the Mediterranea university.

From 2009 to 2013, the palace temporarily housed the Riace Bronzes during an extensive restoration project. These ancient bronze statues, among the most important artworks from antiquity, were kept within its walls during this critical conservation period.
