Palace of Montecitorio (Piazza di Montecitorio)
Designed by Bernini for Innocent X, the building was begun in 1650 and finished in 1694 by Carlo Fontana after several interruptions. The name derives from the location, "monte accettorio" (literally, "welcoming hill"), where the centurians of ancient Rome gathered to vote. Since 1871 the palace has housed the Chamber of Deputies. The semicircular hall where the Chamber assembles was designed by Ernesto Basile and panelled with oak. Inaugurated in 1918, it is in need of renovation and of a new facade in Piazza del Parliamento.
