This majestic facade on Scali D'Azeglio belongs to the Palazzo dell'Aquila Nera (Black Eagle Palace), one of the most remarkable buildings lining the Fosso Reale. The whole first floor of this palazzo, built in 1856, was occupied by the Grand Hotel Royal de l'Aigle Noir, a renowned luxury venue at the time. On the upper floors, divided into apartments, lived families of wealthy merchants.
