The San Donato School Building was designed by Giuseppe Romita at the initiative of Podesta Guido Massa. Romita reworked, in a modern key, Donato Tempesta's design. Constructed in accordance with the principles of rationalist and futurist architecture, Romita's building included more than ten classrooms, rooms for teachers, a medical cabinet, lodgings for custodians, a thermosiphon heating system, a theater, a terrace for heliotherapy, a gymnasium, and spaces dedicated to fascist organizations and conciliation.<\/p>\n
The laying of the foundation stone took place on August 31, 1934, accompanied by a large event that attracted numerous citizens and provincial authorities. In 2016, the building underwent a complete renovation to accommodate the kindergarten, primary and secondary schools.<\/p>\n
Giuseppe Romita (1887-1958) was a prominent engineer and politician, known for his anti-fascist efforts and his role as a national consultant and deputy to the Constituent Assembly. Considered one of the Fathers of the Republic, Romita held important ministerial posts: minister of the Interior (1945-46), of Public Works (1945; 1946-47) and of Labor and Social Security (1947).<\/p>\n
In 1949, Romita led the split from the PSI that led to the creation of the United Socialist Party (PSU). As Minister of Public Works (1954-57) he built the Autostrada del Sole highway, upgraded Italy's port system, supported social housing and promoted the construction of aqueducts. His infrastructural vision was decisive for the Italian \"economic miracle\" (1958-63).<\/p>","protected":false},"featured_media":21143,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","template":"","class_list":["post-21142","poi","type-poi","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","pcea-accessibile-a-utenti-su-sedia-a-rotelle","pcea-bambini","pcea-coppie","pcea-famiglie","pcea-gruppi","pcea-individuale","tluo-architettura-storica","intprin-storia","tempodivisita-15-30-minuti","stagioneideale-tutte-le-stagioni","caratteristiche-dettagli-architettonici-unici","caratteristiche-memoria-viva-del-territorio","caratteristiche-percorso-novecento","tipologia-biglietti-non-prevede-un-biglietto","audioguida-su-richiesta","linguadisponibile-inglese","linguadisponibile-italiano"],"yoast_head":"\n
