Palazzo San Fedele is a historic building located in Milan, Italy.

History

The building, designed by architect Cesare Pascoletti in collaboration with architects Alpago and Cabiati,[1] was constructed in 1952 as the Milan headquarters of the Banca Nazionale del Lavoro,[2] and was erected on a site previously occupied by an 1872 building that had been the first home of the Teatro Manzoni, which was destroyed during the bombings of the Second World War.[2][3] The building later housed the Milan headquarters of BNP Paribas following a renovation completed in 2008.[1][3]

In 2018, the building was sold to a vehicle managed by the Milan-based real estate company COIMA as part of a broader property transaction that saw BNP Paribas relocate its offices to the Torre Diamante in the Porta Nuova district.[4][5] Later, the building underwent renovation and enhancement works overseen by the architecture firm Asti Architetti.[2] Upon completion of the works, the building was leased to Bottega Veneta, becoming its new headquarters.[2][5][6] In 2023, the building was sold to a new vehicle managed by COIMA but subscribed by the German investor Union Investment.[5]

Description

The building, located in the centre of Milan in Piazza San Fedele, features a stripped neoclassical style. It has seven above-ground floors plus two basement levels.[1]
