The building rises at the corner between Via Lamarmora and Piazza Carlo Alberto. The main facade overlooks piazza Carlo Alberto and it is articulated on three floors and a mezzanine.

The nobleman Francesco Barrago was the original owner, but the marriage between two members of Barrago and Prunas families led them to become the owners of the building. The building has the typical elements of the Neoclassic style: windows dominated by blind gable, levelled cornices and the large balcony that passes through the entire first floor. Next to the middle floor, on the corner with Via Lamarmora, it is located a small box containing the Madonna of Lourdes in miniature with the following epigraph: "To the Holy Virgin of Lourdes, on the centenary of her appearances, Marianna and Oliviero Prunas, for eternal gratitude– MCMLVIII".

The bulding is situated at Via Lamarmora and takes the name from the lawyer Emanuele Ortu Ravot who owned it in 1870.

The appearance of this building is similar to the other Neoclassical buildings in Castello district. The façade doesn't show special decorations and has windows with wrought iron railing balconies. A ceramic plate with the old street number of the building, located next to the entrance's arch portal, brings back to memory of the most important cultural society of the time (second half of XIX), the Philharmonic Club, which had its headquarters in the palace.

The building has four facades overlooking piazza Independenza, Via Martini, vico Martini and via Canelles.

Among the historic districts, Castello has fewer Art Nouveau works than the others, but some ancient buildings are an exception because during the twentieth century they were renovated and decorated with floral motifs, especially in the balconies.

The Onnis-Bellegrandi (former Chapelle) Palace boasts a valuable decorative apparatus. The fronts overlooking Via Canelles and Via Martini spread over two floors, characterized by windows and balconies with wrought iron railings.

On the internal façade overlooking Via Martini, a splendid female bust, built in Liberty style, catches visitors' attention.

On the façade overlooking Piazza Indipendenza, there is a seventeenth-century plaque commemorating the construction of a fountain, at the expense of the municipality. The water for the fountain came from the well of Santa Lucia, about 90 meters deep. On the same wall there is also an iscription dating back to the fascist period: it is a part of the speech given by Mussolini on 9 May 1936, when Il Duce proclaimed the Italian empire. The inscription (partially visible today) says: "The Italian people created the Empire with their blood, will fertilize it with their work, defend it against anyone with their weapons. Mussolini".

The bulding has two facades: the main front situated in Viale Trento and a secondary in Viale Luigi Merello

The main front is on three floors that end with a cornice, on top of which are located four statues. Particularly interesting is the use of terracotta in the balconies with perforated railings, in the pillars, in the frames of the openings, in the statues that hold the balcony above the main entrance.

Ebau Palace, built in 1945, was planned by the architect Salvatore Rattu. It is a work whose facade is marked by vertical bands that make it different from the horizontal bands of Zedda Zedda Palace.

The Ebau Palace represents a typical example of fascist architecture, in littorian style with hints of the Bauhaus school. It is part of the artistic current of rationalism, in Cagliari linked to the names of Ubaldo Badas and Salvatore Rattu, as in this case. Parallel to the ideology of the regime, rationalism is permeated by the need for rigor and urgency of the order.

Palazzo Ebau observes the dynamics of the rounded acute corner and its vertical magnificence stands out in contrast with the nearby buildings of Paoli street and San Benedetto square.

The Palace of Justice in Cagliari occupies the eastern side of a large area on a slope that forms Piazza Repubblica. The New Lawcourt had the aim to replace the obsolete office buildings located in the district of Castello.

Around the 30s some suitable places were indicated as ideal location to house the new offices of justice, as Viale Trieste for example, which at the time was the heart of Cagliari. The initial idea to build the palace in those places was quickly abandoned in favour of Monte Urpinu area, certainly less chaotic than the first one. In 1933, the Municipality published a public competition that was won by the Engineer Domenico Dettori and its project. The new courthouse was inaugurated in 1938 after the conclusion of the façade and two side bodies. In the eighties and nineties the building was completed with the construction of the new wing in front of Via Vidal, which gradually underwent further changes during the following years by the Civil Engineer Department. The monumental building, built with the stone of Serrenti, is marked by vertical columns that circumscribe the three levels of openings. The central part of the building is characterized by a portico supported by pillars and columns, complemented by an inscription bearing the Latin motto "Iustitia".

The Antico Palazzo di Città has been Cagliari Town Hall since the Middle Ages until the beginning of the XX century. It is located at Piazza Palazzo, in Castello district.

The Former Town Hall is a historic building of Cagliari, the town hall from the Middle Ages to the early years of the twentieth century, when, during a City Council meeting chaired by Mayor Ottone Bacaredda, on December 14, 1896, the transfer of the Town Hall to the new site, yet to be built on the via Roma, in front of the port, was decreed.

The building dates back to the XIV century and it was restored in the eighteenth century, according to the precepts of the Piedmontese Baroque style.

The building is on two levels, plus a lower ground floor.

On the main façade opens an elegant arched portal with the City's coat of arms above and a plaque commemorating the stay, in 1535, of Emperor Charles V.

The façade in via Canelles, which overlooks the piazza Carlo Alberto, is elegantly elaborate. An epigraph remembers the year when the building was renovated (1787) and the names of the five council members who, along with fifty jurors and a vicar, were responsible for the Castle's administration.

The inner rooms housed many works, among which some paintings by Marghinotti and the precious “Councillors' Altarpiece” by Pietro Cavaro, that were transferred to the new Town Hall in via Roma.

On the upper floor some classrooms for primary schools' pupils were arranged. The first floor housed the Conservatory of Music “Pier Luigi da Palestrina”, created by the lawyer Gavino Dessì Deliperi, until 1970, when it was moved to its new and current headquarters of Via Bacaredda.

After years of neglect, following careful restoration works, the building was returned to citizenship.

The building hosts temporary exhibitions.

The name comes from the "sessions" during which the Spanish viceroys listened to the complaints and petitions of prisoners confined inside San Pancrazio's Tower.

The pink structure built on two floors raised on a high base, in the centre of which San Pancrazio Gate, also known as Della Zecca opens up, connecting the two adjacent squares, Piazza Indipendenza and Piazza Arsenale. The building, dated back to the beginning of the seventeenth century, originally had only a level, but in 1825 it was subjected to important changes in order to elevate the structure. At the end of the nineteenth century, the prison was transferred to Buon Cammino, and the buildings adjacent to San Pancrazio’s Tower were abandoned or used for other purposes. For many years in the twentieth century it housed the collection of the National Art Gallery of Cagliari.

The building is located on a slope behind Buoncammino's hill. Its erection was subsidized by the Superintendency of Public Works of Sardinia.

The building was designed in 1926 by the engineer Angelo Binaghi. The construction works lasted until 1939. The building has an octagonal shape and the entrance hall, accessible through a flight of stairs, is located on the shorter side. The building is characterized by ashlar walls next to paired semi columns, circumscribing the three entrances. The three levels' façade is characterized by its protrusions and by the arched windows decorated with decorative motifs, such as shields and crests.
