Via San Primo, between the Quadrilatero, Via Boschetti and Corso Venezia, is characterized on the left side by the presence of the Palace that was home to the Swiss College, then the Government (1787), the Senate (1814), and several state administrations until 1872, when the State Archive of Milan was established here. The construction began in 1608 when Federico Borromeo, San Carlo's cousin, was the administrator of the diocese of Milan, as the seat of the Swiss College, an institute he founded in Milan in 1579 to train the Swiss clergy engaged in the fight against the Protestant Reformation. In the first phase of the construction, the engineer Aurelio Trezzi, the master builder Cesare Arano and the architect Fabio Mangone, designer at the beginning of the 17th century also of the church on the left side of the college dedicated to San Carlo, were involved. Then, around 1632, the construction was taken over by Francesco Maria Richino, one of the main protagonists of the 17th century Milanese architectural scene and also the architect of the "ecclesiastical buildings" under the Borromeos, author, among other things, of the concave facade without architectural orders and framed by imposing ashlars in stumps. Enlargement works were carried out from 1664 by Gerolamo Quadrio who also took care of the completion and decoration of the church , church that in the 18th century was suppressed, divided into two floors and incorporated into the building with new forms of neoclassical style according to architect Leopoldo Pollack's design. The geometry of the construction, the materials used and the severe monumentality of the two large porticoed courtyards with Tuscan columns on the ground floor and Ionic upstairs give the factory a scenic solemnity in tune with the principles of the Counter-Reformation. The Palace originally overlooked the internal waterway (which ran along the current route of the ring road known as "Cerchia dei Navigli", underground since 1929). The bronze statue in front of the entrance is one of Miròs last works, a reminder of his exhibition in Milan in 1981.
