Description: The Palazzo della Civilta

The "Square Coliseum" as it is popularly known was the work of Guerrini. Commissioned and completed in the early thirties it was largely inspired by the fascist or "bombastic modernism" architectural style of the time. Indeed EUR is full of fascist inspired architecture with the Palazzo della Civilta being one of the finest and most famous buildings in EUR and Rome. Recently the Square Coliseum was used by a major sports company for a TV commercial which outraged Rome's cultural minister and benefactor of the arts.

Now unused the building is a relic to a less than illustrious past.
