Palazzo Jacopo da Brescia shortly before its demolition (until 1937)
The Palazzo Jacopo da Brescia is the now-defunct Renaissance-style palace in Rome , Italy , which was located in the Borgo district.
The palace was built for Jacopo (also known as Giacomo di Bartolomeo) da Brescia, a doctor in the service of Pope Leo X , between 1515 and 1519 . His design is attributed to Raphael and it was based on the design of the nearby Palazzo Caprigni (also demolished) by Donato Bramante . The palace, which was based on a triangular shape, stood at the confluence of Borgo Nuovo and Borgo San Angelo streets. The Palazzo was demolished as a result of the implementation of the plan for the construction of the Via della Conchiliation in 1936 and rebuilt (with a different foundation) along the Via de Corridori.
