What a Building and I forgot to get it's name!!!!!!!!
This building in Montevideo from which you do not remember the name is PALACIO SALVO, almost a twin of Palacio Barolo in Buenos Aires. Same architect, same mystical structure. Both palaces built in the twenties, el Barolo is a hommage to Dante Alighieri, the different levels (floors) represent the circles of his DIVINA COMEDIA, and they say it was the highest building in South america at that time.The HELL (of Divina Comedia) is in the levels of entrance and subsoils, there you can find expressive gargoyles and dragons, snakes and 9 fire circles in floor 9, like Dante Alighieri wrote in La Divina Comedia. From floor 1 to 14 we meet the purgatory —two for each one of the seven terraces of Dante's purgatory —, and from 15 to 22 floors, the paradise: 8 floors, corresponding to the quantity of planets that the Italian poet had identified by the ending of century XIII and beginning of XIV.
Thanks to Renata Lamborghini for the Info.
