Trieste City Hall, Municipal palace in Piazza Unità d'Italia, Trieste, Italy
The Trieste City Hall features a monumental facade with a clock tower topped by two bronze figures called Michez and Jachez on Europe's largest seafront square.
Giuseppe Bruni designed the municipal building between 1873 and 1875, during the period when Trieste belonged to the Austria-Hungarian Empire.
The Council Hall contains elaborate wooden furnishings and a painting titled Prosperous Trade of Trieste by Cesare Dell'Acqua depicting the city as a noblewoman.
The Blue Room serves as a reception area for official visitors, while public access to the building interior is limited to special occasions throughout the year.
Two bronze busts of Austrian rulers adorned the facade until 1919, when they were removed and destroyed following new Italian regulations.
