Situated between the Palace of the Chamber of Commerce and the Teatro Petruzzelli, the Palace of the Bank of Italy was designed by engineer Accolti Gil in 1926, and after six years of work was opened in 1932 and moved in the offices of the Bank of Italy (which were located in via Cairoli).
It covers an area of about three thousand square meters (where once stood the warehouses of the covered market) and is high four levels plus a basement.
Noteworthy are the public salon with his art nouveau windows, the large marble staircase, the bas-reliefs made with Carrara marble and the Council Chamber, with its huge central chandelier and a coffered ceiling, as well as the room of the director, which still retains the furniture of 1934.
Significant is also a bronze bust, recently discovered in the cellars of the building, depicting Vittorio Emanuele III, work of Vittorio Saltelli, follower of Cambellotti.
