Historical notes
The neoclassic Palazzo, designed by the architect Giuseppe Aimi of Correggio, presents a T-shape plan, with the central body characterized by a Doric tetrastyle pronaos in exposed brick on a base in fake smooth ashlar with small lunette apertures. Particularly elegant are the decorative elements in the terracotta frieze, including medallions that depict the eight founders of the Municipality (don Giovanni Battista Branchetti, Luigi Brunetti, Luigi Carbonieri, Fortunato Galantini, Luigi Nicolini, Sante Santachiara, Tomaso Terrachini, and Frumenzio Bernini) that were commissioned by the mayor, Pier Giacinto Terrachini, from his son Bruto.
The building was completely restored in 1983-84.
