Palazzo del Governatore, Parma

The Palazzo del Governatore (Palace of the Governor) is a monumental building located in Piazza Garibaldi forming part of the civic center of Parma, region of Emilia Romagna, Italy.

On the facade, below the clock, is a niche with a statue depicting the Madonna being crowned by the child Jesus by Jean-Baptiste Boudard.

To the right of the door is affixed a plaque with the name of seven members of the Antifascist resistance who were executed on September 1, 1944, by a firing squad in this Piazza by the local Black Brigade.

The brigade shot the prisoners in retaliation for the assassination of Brenno Monardi, local fascist leader by partisans.

The piazza in front of the palace once held a Monument to the Ara Amicitiae (1769), also designed by Petitot, but it has been substituted by a statue of Giuseppe Garibaldi, by Davide Calandra.
