San Francesco Saverio

A friend let me have a look at this room inside the “Palazzo di Giustizia” (Courthouse) of Livorno. Some restoration works are still going on and it will be probably used as a conference room.This was the Chapel of Saint Francis Xavier when these buildings were owned by the Company of Jesus. It was opened in 1707 and was used until 1773, when the Order was suppressed.There was an external entrance from “Via della Madonna”, which is just outside the windows on the right side of the room.

Versione italiana

Corte d'Assise

Nice window, it isn't? Better not be looking the world from there, because this is the “Corte d'Assise”, the relatively more recent part of the “Palazzo di Giustizia” (Courthouse) of Livorno.The year of construction, written on the facade in Latin form, is 1880. The building has been recently restored.
