XE3A2893 - Archiginnasio di Bologna
El Archiginnasio de Bolonia es uno de los palacios más importantes de la ciudad de Bolonia, Italia. Fue la sede de la Universidad de Bolonia entre 1563 a 1803, albergando actualmente la Biblioteca Comunal del Archiginnasio. Forma parte del sitio Patrimonio de la Humanidad de los Pórticos de Bolonia.
El palacio está estructurado en dos niveles con un pórtico anterior y patio interno que engloba la ex iglesia de Santa Maria dei Bulgari.
El nivel superior contenía las salas de estudio de los legisti (estudiantes de derecho) y los artisti (estudiantes de otras materias): sus respectivas aulas magnas son la Sala dello Stabat Mater y la Sala de Lectura de la actual Biblioteca Comunal. Tanto los legisti como los artisti disponían de diez aulas. Sin embargo, los legisti, considerados estudiantes de primera categoría y un poco presumidos, tenían sus salas a lo largo del corredor principal. Legisti y artisti subían el piso superior por escaleras distintas ya que no pretendían mezclarse de ningún modo.
Como testimonio de la larga historia universitaria del palacio ha quedado un enorme complejo heráldico en los muros, compuesto por siete mil escudos de armas de los estudiantes e inscripciones en honor de los estudiantes. Estos escudos se salvaron afortunadamente de la destrucción ordenada por el gobierno republicano en 1797 y de los bombardeos durante la Segunda Guerra Mundial.

The Archiginnasio of Bologna is one of the most important buildings in the city of Bologna; once the main building of the University of Bologna, it currently houses the Archiginnasio Municipal Library and the Anatomical Theatre.
In the heart of the palace is the university Chapel of Santa Maria dei Bulgari, a reflection of history.
The Archiginnasio ceased to be a University in 1803 when the University was moved to Palazzo Poggi where it is still located today. Scuole Pie (primary schools) were housed in this building for a few years and later, from 1838 onwards, were replaced by the city library. Archiginnasio Municipal Library is the largest library in Emilia-Romagna. It was first established to keep the books collected from the closure of the religious orders made by Napoleon. It houses 850,000 volumes and pamphlets, including 2,000 incunabula, about 15,000 16th century editions, 8,500 manuscripts, letters, collections of autographs, prints and drawings and 250 archives. All of this material, handwritten and printed collections, are of the utmost importance. They deal with the civil, cultural, religious and social history of Bologna and its territory.
Externally the building presents a porch some 139 meters long comprising thirty arches supported by sandstone columns, inside a central courtyard with two lines of loggias that surround the former church of Santa Maria dei Bulgari. Two stairways lead to the upper floor where are located the study rooms of the legisti (students of civil and canon law) and the artisti (students of other subjects such as philosophy, literature and medicine). Each of the legisti and the artisti had five classrooms in their respective wings. However, only the legisti, who were considered the university's top students, had their classrooms in the main hallway. At the end of each wing are two great halls, one of them now the library's reading room, the other one now used as a congress room and known as the "Sala dello Stabat Mater" in memory of the first performance of Rossini's Stabat Mater, directed by Gaetano Donizetti, on March 18, 1842.
