Durisch and Nolli commissioned to draw up a preliminary project for the renovation of the Barracks of the Papal Swiss Guard.
The project involves three buildings of the current barracks. Two of these house the halberdiers troop and the canteen, while the third building houses the officers and their families and administration offices. These buildings date back to the 19th century and have only undergone minimal refurbishment. They are outdated, poorly insulated, and subsequently have high maintenance costs.
The project for the renovation of the barracks is complex due to the particular historical aspect of the area where the buildings are situated and the geological and architectural difficulties of the area.
