Maggiore</a> was drastically remodeled under papal orders; the <a href="/wiki/Fountain_of_Neptune,_Bologna" title="Fountain of Neptune, Bologna">Fountain of Neptune</a> was built during this same period. The construction of the Archiginnasio was commissioned by <a href="/wiki/Pope_Pius_IV" title="Pope Pius IV">Pope Pius IV</a> through the <a href="/wiki/Papal_legate" title="Papal legate">papal legate</a> <a href="/wiki/Charles_Borromeo" title="Charles Borromeo">Charles Borromeo</a> and the vice-legate <a href="/wiki/Pier_Donato_Cesi_(1521%E2%80%931586)" class="mw-redirect" title="Pier Donato Cesi (1521–1586)">Pier Donato Cesi</a> during the years of the <a href="/wiki/Council_of_Trent" title="Council of Trent">Council of Trent</a>, who then entrusted the project to <a href="/wiki/Antonio_Morandi" title="Antonio Morandi">Antonio Morandi</a> (known as <i>il Terribilia</i>). The building was begun at the end of February 1562, built very quickly, it was inaugurated on October 21, 1563. The goal of this project was to create a single place where the Schools of the "<i>Legisti"</i> (Canon and Civil law) and "<i>Artisti</i>" (philosophy, medicine, mathematics, natural sciences and physics), previously located in various places across the town, could be hosted together. The building of the new "Schools" was named Archiginnasio after the classical term which was used to designate the <i>Studium,</i> as the University was first called<i>,</i> of Bologna. </p><p>The Archiginnasio ceased to be a University in 1803 when the University was moved to <a href="/wiki/Palazzo_Poggi" title="Palazzo Poggi">Palazzo Poggi</a> 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. <a href="/wiki/Biblioteca_comunale_dell%27Archiginnasio" title="Biblioteca comunale dell'Archiginnasio">Archiginnasio Municipal Library</a> is the largest library in <a href="/wiki/Emilia-Romagna" title="Emilia-Romagna">Emilia-Romagna</a>. It was first established to keep the books collected from the closure of the religious orders made by <a href="/wiki/Napoleon" title="Napoleon">Napoleon</a>. At present it boasts 850,000 volumes and pamphlets, including 2,000 <a href="/wiki/Incunable" title="Incunable">incunabula</a>, 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. </p><p>Upon entering, visitors are asked to hand over all bags and writing materials which can be picked up when leaving. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="The_building">The building</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Archiginnasio_of_Bologna&action=edit&section=2" title="Edit section: The building"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>Externally the building presents a porch some 139 meters long comprising thirty arches supported by sandstone columns, inside a central courtyard with two line of loggias that surrounds the former <a href="/w/index.php?title=Church_of_Santa_Maria_dei_Bulgari&action=edit&redlink=1" class="new" title="Church of Santa Maria dei Bulgari (page does not exist)">church of Santa Maria dei Bulgari</a>. Two stairways lead to the upper floor where are located the study rooms of the <i>legisti</i> (students who studied civil and canon law), and the <i>artisti</i> (students of other subjects such as philosophy, literature and medicine). Each of the <i>legisti</i> and the <i>artisti</i> 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.<sup id="cite_ref-2" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-2"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>2<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> At the end of each wing there are two great halls, one of them has now become the library's reading room, the other one is now used as a congress room and is known as "Sala dello Stabat Mater" in memory of the first performance of <a href="/wiki/Gioachino_Rossini" title="Gioachino Rossini">Rossini</a>'s <i>Stabat Mater</i>, directed by Gaetano Donizetti, on March 18, 1842. </p><p>The walls of the building form an enormous <a href="/wiki/Heraldic" class="mw-redirect" title="Heraldic">heraldic</a> complex, made up of six thousand coats of arms painted on its walls. The honor of putting a coat of arms on the walls was reserved for those students who were elected by other students as heads of the <i>nationes</i> (student organizations)<i>,</i> and called <i>councillors</i>.<sup id="cite_ref-3" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-3"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>3<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> The coats of arms indicate the home country or city of the student, along with the student's name. On the walls of the lower portico are located a number of busts of the 17th century portraying lecturers from the university. Moreover, on the walls is also possible to notice the connection with the papal power (Bologna was the second main city of the Papal States), many are the coats of arms with the symbols of the church: triple crowns, St. Peter's keys and the clerical hats. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Anatomical_theatre">Anatomical theatre</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Archiginnasio_of_Bologna&action=edit&section=3" title="Edit section: Anatomical theatre"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <style data-mw-deduplicate="TemplateStyles:r1236090951">.mw-parser-output .hatnote{font-style:italic}.mw-parser-output div.hatnote{padding-left:1.6em;margin-bottom:0.5em}.mw-parser-output .hatnote i{font-style:normal}.mw-parser-output .hatnote+link+.hatnote{margin-top:-0.5em}@media print{body.ns-0 .mw-parser-output .hatnote{display:none!important}}</style><div role="note" class="hatnote navigation-not-searchable">Main article: <a href="/wiki/Anatomical_theatre_of_the_Archiginnasio" title="Anatomical theatre of the Archiginnasio">Anatomical theatre of the Archiginnasio</a></div> <p>The upper level of the building still houses the anatomical theatre, which was built in 1636 by Antonio Levanti.
