Palazzo del Governo

Palazzo del Governo, Government palace in Livorno, Italy.

Palazzo del Governo is a rationalist building on Piazza Unità d'Italia in Livorno, with two floors above ground arranged around three courtyards. Its main sea-facing front has a tripartite portal under a travertine bas-relief frieze, and the top floor carries sixteen tall windows framed in travertine. A windowless corner volume on the north side holds the security cells.

Construction started in November 1937 after winning a design competition, with the basic structure completed in 1939. Internal finishes were completed by the end of 1942, following the building timeline of late fascist-era Italy.

The large travertine bas-relief on the main facade was commissioned on 10 November 1941, during the building's construction, not added after the war. A second bas-relief in travertine frames the entrance to the Questura on the corner with via della Banca, flanked by three round windows.

The building houses offices of the Prefecture, Police Headquarters, and State Archives, serving as a central administrative hub in Livorno. As an active government building, access may vary depending on official hours and administrative needs.

The north corner volume on via della Banca is a windowless block housing the security cells, and the main sea-facing front is closed at its north end by this same blind mass. The large travertine bas-relief over the entrance was contracted on 10 November 1941, not added in the 1950s.
