Grand Hotel Baglioni
Grand Hotel Baglioni, Bologna
Via Indipendenza 8, Bologna
The Architect Of The Imposing Structure
was Alfonso Torregiani Who Acted An
order Of Cardinal Prospero Lambertini
using 2.000 -scudi- -shields- Which The
pope Had Bequeathed In 1738. The Building
was To Be Located On What Was Once
the Crossway Of An Ancient Roman Road
and Later The Site Of The Medieval
mansions Of Ariosti/rustighelli And
arrigoni. The New Construction Designated
to Be The Seat Of An Arch-episcopal Seminary
was Enriched According To The Wishes Of
cardinal Vincenzo Malvezzi Who Entrusted
francesco Tadolini With Its Care. The Wide
portic And A Row Of Rooms Above It Were Added
thus Giving To The Simple/harmonious And Majestic
facade.
in 1911 The Palace Was Converted Into A Hotel
which Under Various Owners Continued To Be Used
as Such Until As Late As 1978.
the Actual Restoratation Of The Structure Began
in November 1985 Which Resulted In The Demolition
of Some 1400 Cubic Metres Of Extraneous Additions.
in The Process Of Architectonic Revaluation
those Elements Deemed Incongrous To The Original
design Were Eliminated And Torregianis
structural Foundations Restored. During The Fourteen
months Of Intense Work Spaces Were Opened And
lighting Effects Anhanced Bringing To The Fore The
octagonal Shape Of The Adjoining Tower Of Palazzo Fava.
thus Panoramas From The Baglionis Windows Now
present Unhindered Views Which Extended From The
ancient Towers Of Bologna To The Church Of San Luca
on The Southern Hilltop To The Modern Fairgrounds
and Business District In The North Of The City.
