Liberty Itinerary/Chini- Carabinieri barracks

https://cultura.ilfilo.net/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/08-Carabinieri-barracks-2.mp3

This building was designed by the engineer Severino Crott in 1928 and inaugurated in 1930 as the headquarters of the Casa del Fascio (House of Fascism). The large ceramic eagle in relief and the polychrome glass still preserved on the façade were made by the Chini manufacture; its severe style was imposed by the regime which later even banned the decorations of the exterior. Unfortunately, the decoration of the room that housed the cinema inside the building also made with the materials of the Fornaci, has been lost; but the local press described that as a sumptuous environment: “a wonderful harmony of lights and colours”.
