Altare della Patria (Victor Emmanuel II Monument) at night

Highlight • Monument

In 1878 the Italian Parliament decided to dedicate a national monument to the recently deceased sovereign Vittorio Emanuele II.
After two international competitions (1880 and 1882), the project presented by Giuseppe Sacconi was chosen. The young architect from the Marche region, following the model of the great sanctuaries of the classical era, had conceived the space as a scenic representation celebrating the Italian Risorgimento in the center of imperial Rome.

The architectural structure of the monument was developed as an ideal ascending path that, through the stairs and terraces, enriched by the various sculptural groups and bas-reliefs of the central Altar of the Homeland, would rise to the side temples and from these to the grandiose crowned columned portico. by bronze chariots, allegories of the Unity of the Homeland and Freedom.
