Comune Di Brescia

Brescia is a city in the northern Italian region of Lombardy. On the eastern outskirts is the San Salvatore–Santa Giulia complex. This former monastery includes a basilica, cloisters and the Santa Giulia Museum, with items including Roman bronzes and medieval frescoes. On Cidneo Hill, Brescia Castle has a drawbridge and ramparts, plus the Luigi Marzoli Arms Museum, exhibiting ancient weapons and armor.

It is the second largest municipality in the region by population, after Milan, and is one of the twenty most populous municipalities in Italy. An ancient city whose origins date back over 3,200 years ago, Brescia has a conspicuous artistic and architectural heritage: its Roman and Longobard monuments have been declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO. Active in the manufacturing, metalworking, textile, chemical and food industries, it is among the main economic-productive centers of Italy and is known for the famous Mille Miglia vintage car race and for the production of Franciacorta .

The city of Brescia is nicknamed "The Lioness", originally due to the valor and attachment shown towards the Venetian republic: in 1438, in this regard, the same Venetian Senate proclaimed the city of Brescia "Lioness and worthy spouse of the Lion" conferring the title of "Brixia Fidelis fidei et Iustitiae", a title proudly displayed on the front of the Palazzo della Loggia.
