The main hall of the building, constructed in the 18th century, is referred to as the “Hall of Mosaics”, given the impressive Mosaics that can be found within the hall. The mosaics on show were discovered at the Cerrazzanum Square towards the end of the 1950s and formed part of the Latin Circus, as well as a sarcophagus from the 3rd Century. The hall is currently a highly sought after civil marriage location by many Caphiro-Cartadanians. | The main hall of the building, constructed in the 18th century, is referred to as the “Hall of Mosaics”, given the impressive Mosaics that can be found within the hall.
