Domodossola Town Hall (Italian: Palazzo di Città di Domodossola) is the town hall of the town and comune of Domodossola in Italy.
The building, designed by architect Giovanni Leoni, was constructed in 1847.[1] In 1899, in front of the palace, a monument by Francesco Ricci, a sculptor from the Vigezzo Valley, was erected in honor of Gian Giacomo Galletti, a local benefactor whose bequest gave rise to the Galletti Foundation.
In 1944, the building served as the seat of the Provisional Government Council of the Ossola Partisan Republic.[2]
Description
The building stands on Piazza della Repubblica dell’Ossola, in the center of Domodossola.
It features a Neoclassical style, with symmetrical façades.[2] Inside, it houses the Historical Hall of the Resistance.
