More information on Porta Venezia
Once known as Porta Orientale, the Eastern Gate, in the Spanish city walls, these two buildings were made to a design by Rodolfo Vantini from 1827 to 1828, following a competition launched to replace Piermarini's work that had been left unfinished. The square-plan buildings have loggias on three sides. The design testifies to the transformation, which had already begun with Piermarini's design (1787-1789), of the fortified gates into administrative buildings. Facing the direction of Vienna, the monument would later lose significance when Napoleon took command and built the Arch of Peace.
