Campus Extension

In spring 2024, a new building for the KHI became operational at Via Gustavo Modena 13, about 600 meters from Via Giusti: a palazzo of around 2,000 square meters that houses the Photothek, part of the Library, two research groups, as well as seminar and social spaces. With the completion of work on the new building, which began in February 2021, the spaces in the KHI’s other premises in Florence were reorganized.
