About
The Palazzo del Convitto, also known as the Palazzo del Liceo or Palazzo della Biblioteca, sometimes referred to as the Palazzo delle Corporazioni or Palazzo dell'Economia, is a monumental complex in L'Aquila.
It was built in the 19th century to replace the Church and Convent of San Francesco a Palazzo, at the behest of the Province of L'Aquila, and has historically housed the National Boarding School Domenico Cotugno and Liceo Ginnasio Domenico Cotugno, the Salvatore Tommasi Provincial Library, the Chamber of Commerce of L'Aquila, and the Province of L'Aquila.
It is located at the intersection of Corso Principe Umberto and Corso Vittorio Emanuele, with an additional frontage on Piazza del Palazzo.
