Il Piacere

Il Piacere [Italian: The Pleasure] is an underground bar in Italy. It is owned by Eimuccio Burgetano.

History
The building where Il Piacere is located was constructed in 1864 and the architect had left a large space under the building, which was originally designed as a storage room. The contractor; Giuseppe Miseppi, however, had another idea to convert it into an underground bar. When he passed away in 1891, his son, Antonio Miseppi, took over ownership of the bar. By then the bar grew extremely popular with the working-class.

On 29 July 1919, Antonio Miseppi was arrested by Romano Giovanucci, seemingly for allowing revolutionaries to use the bar as a base of operations. In August in the same year, Antonio Miseppi sold his bar to Eimuccio Burgetano, who is the current owner.
