	Basilica Palladiana, Vicenza
		On the southeast side of the Piazza dei Signori in Vicenza stands the Basilica Palladiana (1549-1614), Palladio's masterpiece, with open colonnades of two storys (lower part Doric and upper part Ionic), a very impressive combination.
		The basilica was not built as a church but as a meeting-place for the Grand Council.
		In front of the west end of the basilica is a marble statue of Palladio (1859).

		An addendum that does not appear on the description of the Basilica is:
		The Vicentines started construction on the basilica, the plague ended and so did the construction.
		What I like in Italy is that cities have the graving like drawing printed on their public transport tickets - in Vicenza the Basilica Palladiana for the 70 minutes ticket I had.

		The Basilica was well known as a resort for the nobility, a covered piazza, common to everyone, with meetings of the Maggior Consiglio, the celebration of San Vincenzo's day, adn even with a temporary theatre (by Palladio's design) with plays of the Accademica Olimpica.
		The Basilica was surrounded on all four sides by piazze, each with distinct functions (like charity bank and city residence) laid down as far as marketing went in those days in byelaws (citylaws).
		The Piazza, together with the Basilica served for many functions, and was one of the most important place in the city at the time of Palladio.

	Basilica Palladiana - Wikipedia
		Il palazzo così "ricostruito" fu denominato basilica dallo stesso Palladio, in quanto si richiamava al modello della basilica romana, di uso civile.
		Rimase quindi ricordato come Basilica Palladiana dal nome del suo architetto e conserva, a seguito di numerosi restauri (l'ultimo terminato nel 2002), l'aspetto dell'opera cinquecentesca progettata dal Palladio.
		Oggi la Basilica Palladiana, dotata di tre spazi espositivi indipendenti, è sede di mostre d'architettura e d'arte d'interesse mondiale.

		Opposite the Basilica is the Loggia dei Capitaniato designed by Palladio in 1571 to replace the medieval residence of the "Capitanio", the Venetian Captain in Vicenza.

		To a side are the palaces and to the other, the basilicas or only the palladiana Basilica.
		There one will be point-blank with a powerful medieval brick ship, run aground on the stone pavement of the Piazza dei Signori and catched by the marble networks that the Palladio wove like a columnata double, transforming it into one of the main poetic civil units of the architectonic one of Vicenza.
		The architecture of the Basilica is an opportunity to solve, from the classic orders, the technical questions that integration with an existing building of irregular construction raises.

		Bottom, from left: The house was erected over three days in the Basilica Palladiana in Vicenza, Italy.
		In the main hall of the Basilica Palladiana, a medieval church redesigned by Andrea Palladio in the 16th century, the house becomes a "thing within a thing within a thing," Steven Holl explains.

		The contract to build the Loggia, the exterior part of the Basilica, was won by Palladio in competition with distinguished architects of the time, and his plans were not only to support the existing 15th century unstable Gothic building inside his elegant but strongly built Basilica, but also to include the "Domus comestabilis".
		It was designed by Palladio as the official residence of the Capitanio, a military authority instituted by the Venetian government.
		Basilica as defined by Palladio himself means a court as known in Roman times, and the influence his visits to Rome had on the young architect are obvious in the regular arches and spaces so reminiscent of the Colosseum.

	NO DAL MOLIN: OCCUPATA BASILICA PALLADIANA
		, simbolo della città di Vicenza, per difendere il nostro territorio e il patrimonio architettonico che ospita; la basilica occupata, in queste ore, è diventata il simbolo dell'Altrocomune, cioè di quel vasto e trasversale movimento nato in questi mesi a Vicenza per battersi contro la costruzione di una nuova installazione militare Usa.
		L'occupazione della Basilica Palladiana da parte di un gruppo di cittadini del Presidio Permanente No Dal Molin si è conclusa pochi minuti dopo le 19.00, con l'arrivo in Piazza dei Signori del corteo che era partito da Piazza Matteotti.
		L'occupazione della basilica palladiana e il corteo in difesa del presidio sono dunque diventati un'unica manifestazione.
