Palazzo del Governo

Palazzo del Governo, Government palace in Arezzo, Italy.

Palazzo del Governo is a government building in Arezzo with four floors and a curved facade combining brick and travertine stone on Poggio del Sole hill. Inside, it contains the Prefecture offices, Police Headquarters, and a ceremonial hall, each accessed through separate entrances.

In the mid-1930s Prefect Stefano Podestà commissioned Giovanni Michelucci to design a new government seat on Poggio del Sole, inside the walls near the railway station. Michelucci drew up the general plan in spring 1937, with working drawings delivered between August 1937 and January 1938. Work halted after a site accident, resumed in March 1938, and the palace was inaugurated at the end of 1939.

The Salone delle Feste reception hall features double-arched galleries that reflect the architectural style typical of 1930s Italian government buildings. The space shows how official settings were designed to convey authority and order during that era.

The building sits atop a hill with good visibility from various parts of the city. Its three separate entrances provide access to different sections depending on which office or area you need to visit.

The triangular garden in Piazza Poggio del Sole is crossed by a pedestrian path set slightly off-axis from the central archway of the Prefecture. At its centre stands the bronze Monument to the Partisan by B. Giorgi, which replaced an earlier commemorative sculpture in the years right after the war.
