Archiginnasio anatomical theater
With the main building of the University of Bologna, Archiginnasio is now hosting one of the most unusual places in Bologna, the classroom in which medical students learned anatomy, observing how the bodies were dissected.Not this bizarre aspect is fascinating today as much as the exceptional interior and its unusual wood sculpture.The culminating point is (skinless) spellates (Skinless), a wooden sculpture in the natural size of a man with muscles and skeletal structure rendered in tiny details.Also, in this building is the Statbat Mater classroom, its walls being decorated with blazons.The University of Bologna, founded in the eleventh century, is the oldest university in the Western world.
