Palazzo Calchi, Neoclassical palace in Milan, Italy

The Palazzo Calchi stands at Corso di Porta Vigentina 15a, exhibiting classical architectural elements from its twelfth-century construction and later modifications.

The building originated in 1100 as a monastery of San Bernardo, governed by Benedictine nuns before transitioning to Dominican administration in 1506.

The palace demonstrates the architectural evolution of Milan through different periods, from religious institution to educational establishment and municipal offices.

The Municipality of Milan currently owns and manages the building, which houses municipal services and allows public access during standard business hours.

During the Five Days of Milan revolution, students and professors from Palazzo Calchi united to participate in the uprising for independence.
