Palazzo degli Uffici

Palazzo degli Uffici, Rationalist office building in EUR district, Rome, Italy

Palazzo degli Uffici consists of two perpendicular blocks: a square one with a central courtyard, and a rectangular one open to the public, linked by a connecting element. Its fountain has eighteen basins decorated with black-and-white marble, and Gino Severini, Giulio Rosso and Giovanni Guerrini contributed panel decorations. The commissariat entrance features a bas-relief by Publio Morbiducci and a bronze statue by Italo Griselli, later altered into the "Genius of Sport".

Architect Gaetano Minnucci completed this building in 1939 as the first permanent structure of the planned district for the 1942 World Exhibition. The exhibition never took place, but the area was developed further and inhabited after the war.

The entrance is marked by a large bas-relief by Publio Morbiducci showing scenes from Rome's long history as a builder. The work gives a sense of how deeply the city drew on its own past when shaping new public spaces.

The building is in active use as an administrative office, so interior access is generally not available to visitors, but the facade and entrance area can be seen from the street. Coming on a weekday morning tends to allow a quieter look at the exterior.

The air-raid shelter beneath the palazzo was built in 1937–38, measures 450 m² (475 m² in the French source) and could hold about 300 people, with ventilated rooms and fittings. It later hosted exhibitions and events before closing for safety reasons.
