Tomb of the Horatii and Curiatii, Albano Laziale, Italy, 1st century BC
The station is one of the world's largest brick buildings, and notable for its original, lavish Art Deco interior fittings and decor. The structure remained largely unused for more than 30 years after its closure; in 2008 its condition was described as "very bad" by English Heritage, which included it in its Heritage at Risk Register. The site was also listed on the 2004 World Monuments Watch by the World Monuments Fund.
