Luigi Sturzo Institute

The mission of The Luigi Sturzo Institute [2] is to endorse research in the historical sciences, sociology, political and economical fields by providing vast documentation in the archive library, facilitate canvassers, issue publications and maintain various alliances with other national and international institutes.

Located in Palazzo Baldassini, the institute’s remarkable building was constructed by architect Antonio da Sangallo il Giovane[3] in 1515.

The interior walls are decorated with frescos from various artists including several who attended La Scuola di Raffaelo.

The formation sector provides courses for graduates that teach the work specifics of several jobs in the cultural organization career based on the common European model.

The diffusion and verifications of scientific results are dispersed predominantly by our publications, one of which is our journal, Sociologia,[4] published every four months, which discusses historical and social sciences.
