Palais du Quirinal

Latium

Italie

Le palais du Quirinal est un palais romain, qui se trouve sur la colline du Quirinal et qui fait face à la place éponyme, à Rome. Résidence papale, elle est occupée, à partir de 1870, par le roi d'Italie et sa famille avant de devenir, enfin, la résidence officielle du président de la République italienne. Ce palais, l'un des plus vastes au monde, est l'un des symboles les plus éminents de l'État italien. Construit à partir de 1574 à l'initiative du pape Grégoire XIII, le palais du Quirinal est l'un des bâtiments les plus prestigieux de la capitale italienne, tant du point de vue artistique que du point de vue politique. Plusieurs artistes, parmi les plus grands d'Italie voire d'Europe, ont contribué à sa construction ou à ses aménagements, comme Pietro da Cortona, Domenico Fontana, Ferdinando Fuga et Carlo Maderno. Actuellement, le palais abrite le plus grand fragment d'une fresque de l'artiste Melozzo da Forlì. Paul V est le premier pontife prenant vraiment place au Quirinal, qui sera la résidence romaine de trente papes, de Grégoire XIII à Pie IX. Le palais est toutefois davantage utilisé par la papauté comme une résidence secondaire, son véritable siège étant le Palais apostolique. En 1870, le palais devient une résidence royale après la prise de Rome et accueille, jusqu'en 1946, les quartiers de la famille royale d'Italie. Après l'instauration de la République italienne, le bâtiment est provisoirement réquisitionné pour accueillir les dignitaires étrangers invités par le nouveau régime, avant qu'il ne soit établi, à partir du 1er janvier 1948, comme la résidence officielle du président de la République italienne. Couvrant une superficie de 110 500 m², le palais du Quirinal est l'un des plus grands palais d'Europe ; il est, en outre, l'une des plus grandes résidences de chef d'État au monde. L'actuel hôte du Quirinal est Sergio Mattarella, président de la République italienne depuis le 3 février 2015.
