Palazzo dei Giornali, Monumental palace in Piazza Cavour, Milan, Italy

The six-story Palazzo dell'Informazione features a U-shaped structure with a marble facade, grand columns, and decorative elements by artist Mario Sironi.

Architect Giovanni Muzio designed the building between 1938 and 1942 to house Il Popolo d'Italia newspaper offices under Mussolini's commission.

The interior displays the large mosaic 'L'Italia Corporativa,' which was transferred from the 1936 Milan Triennale exhibition to the palace.

The building structure separates office spaces in the front section from material handling areas in the rear, connected through a rational layout system.

The basement originally contained printing equipment that was given as a gift from Hitler to Mussolini during the fascist period.
