Edicola Via del Corso / Via dei Sabini (Newspaper kiosk @ Galleria Alberto)

This is a typical Italian edicola (news kiosk) that sells newspapers, periodicals, and souvenirs. Galleria Alberto Sordi (until 2003 Galleria Colonna) is a shopping arcade named after the actor Alberto Sordi. On the Via del Corso, it was constructed, as Galleria Colonna (named after the square which stands across the Via del Corso). The building, built in the Art Nouveau style, was constructed in 1914 on the site of Palazzo Piombino.

Hours of operation: 8.00 (8:00 am) to 18.00 (6:00 pm). Hours may vary seasonally. Parking garages may be found within a few blocks.

The Euro cent machine is located outside of the news kiosk on the southwest corner of Galleria Alberto Sordi (Intersection of Via del Corso and Via dei Sabini) across from Piazza Colonna. The Euro cent machine is in front of the news kiosk at the intersection of these streets and NOT inside the Galleria. Since the news kiosks do not have addresses, the address posted is for the Galleria. There is another Euro-cent machine a 2 minute walk along Via del Corso to the north.

Machine 1 is in front of the news kiosk. Cost to press: €1.05 each design (€1 coin and a 5 Euro cent coin). Designs all have a 'MC' (Maecri) beaded border:
1. (H) Pantheon with 'Pantheon Roma'.
2. (H) Colosseum with 'Colosseo Roma'.
3. (H) St. Peter's Basilica with 'Basilica S. Pietro'.
4. (H) Trevi fountain with 'Fontana di Trevi Roma'.
