CONFERENCE VENUE Archivio antico Palazzo del Bo In the first decades of the sixteenth century the various schools scattered throughout the districts of the city were housed in one single structure, the Palazzo del Bo. Located near the street traditionally occupied by butcher s shops, the building derived its name from the sign of the famous Hospitium Bovis [Ox Inn] that occupied one of the patrician homes built in this area from the end of the thirteenth century onwards. The conversion of the existing structures for university use began in 1494 and would be concluded at the beginning of the seventeenth century. A new programme of work on the structure would begin in 1889, with the building being completed in its present form in 1938-1942. That latter phase included the creation of the New Court, commissioned from the architect Ettore Fagiuoli by the then Chancellor, Carlo Anti. The décor and furnishings of the completed structure were the work of the famous architect Giò Ponti.
