# The Campidoglio redesign is begun for Paul III as a dated civic-square architecture

Date: 1538

## The fact

From 1538 [Michelangelo](/people/michelangelo) redesigned the Campidoglio for Paul III, including the [Marcus Aurelius](/people/marcus-aurelius) siting. Later paving ran past his death. Later listings are not 1538. Michelangelo's documented role is: He redesigned the Capitoline piazza, including the Marcus Aurelius siting. Later paving and palace finishes ran into the seventeenth century; the brief is his. Later UNESCO is not 1538.

## Context

Paul III is the pope of the brief. Sharing the square with that pope and later finishers is required. The setting of The Campidoglio redesign is begun for Paul III as a dated civic-square architecture is the public file around 1538-01-01. Shared offices, unnamed crews, printers, or later editors may appear without becoming this instrument. Driver [industrial-policy-activism](/drivers/industrial-policy-activism) is attached because the significance names a mechanism from this act, not because a standing list needed coverage.

If a number is not in the two records named above, it is not supplied here.
