By the middle of the 13th century it appears to have been well structured on the institutional level with an independent bureaucracy, a considerable amount of property and an administrative seat of its own. The administration was chaired by an Operaio, or &#8220;chief worker&#8221;, aided by a group of advisers and a clerk tasked with keeping the account books, although the clerk was replaced by a fully-fledged treasurer (the Camerlengo, or Chamberlain) in 1362. The structure and functions assigned to the Opera in the 14th century were radically reformed in 1545. The Operaio was replaced by a Rettore, or Rector, who was elected by the highest city authorities together with a council of nine Savi, or Wise Men, one of whom was selected from among the Cathedral&#8217;s own canons.[\/vc_column_text][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner offset=&#8221;vc_hidden-xs&#8221;]<div class=\"clearboth\"><\/div><style>#thegem-divider-69e611d3125dc {margin-top: 110px !important;}<\/style><div id=\"thegem-divider-69e611d3125dc\" class=\"gem-divider  \" style=\"\" ><\/div>[\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row full_width=&#8221;stretch_row_content_no_spaces&#8221; equal_height=&#8221;yes&#8221; content_placement=&#8221;middle&#8221; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1646911837670{margin-bottom: 0px !important;padding-bottom: 0px !important;}&#8221;][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243; disable_custom_paddings_tablet=&#8221;true&#8221; disable_custom_paddings_mobile=&#8221;true&#8221; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1542290229812{padding-right: 110px !important;padding-left: 110px !important;}&#8221;][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner offset=&#8221;vc_hidden-xs&#8221;]<div class=\"clearboth\"><\/div><style>#thegem-divider-69e611d312605 {margin-top: 75px !important;}<\/style><div id=\"thegem-divider-69e611d312605\" class=\"gem-divider  \" style=\"\" ><\/div>[\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner offset=&#8221;vc_hidden-lg vc_hidden-md vc_hidden-sm&#8221;]<div class=\"clearboth\"><\/div><style>#thegem-divider-69e611d312621 {margin-top: 50px !important;}<\/style><div id=\"thegem-divider-69e611d312621\" class=\"gem-divider  \" style=\"\" ><\/div>[\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_column_text css_animation=&#8221;bottom-to-top&#8221;]<\/p>\n<h1 style=\"text-align: center;\">&#8230;since 1990<\/h1>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text]<div class=\"clearboth\"><\/div><style>#thegem-divider-69e611d31263d {margin-top: 35px !important;}<\/style><div id=\"thegem-divider-69e611d31263d\" class=\"gem-divider  \" style=\"\" ><\/div>[vc_column_text css_animation=&#8221;bottom-to-top&#8221;]<\/p>\n<div class=\"row m_bottom_50\">\n<div class=\"col-sm-12\">\n<p>The 16th century regulations were to remain in force basically throughout the modern era, the only major change being that the Rector&#8217;s appointment became a prerogative of the Grand Duke of Tuscany. In the final decades of the 18th century the grand dukes changed the Opera&#8217;s setup several times before finally abolishing the office of the Wise Men and entrusting the Rector with full administrative responsibility, in conjunction with a budget officer who kept the Opera&#8217;s accounts and a chancellor who handled its bureaucratic affairs. After the unification of Italy in the 19th century, the Opera del Duomo di Siena became subject to the legislation of the new Italian state like every other Fabbriceria.<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"row \">\n<div class=\"col-sm-6 m_bottom_30\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text]<div class=\"clearboth\"><\/div><style>#thegem-divider-69e611d312659 {margin-top: 35px !important;}<\/style><div id=\"thegem-divider-69e611d312659\" class=\"gem-divider  \" style=\"\" ><\/div>[\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243; css_animation=&#8221;bottom-to-top&#8221; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1643188336514{background-image: url(https:\/\/operaduomo.siena.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/facciata_duomo-lombardi.jpg?id=30307) !important;background-position: center !important;background-repeat: no-repeat !important;background-size: cover !important;}&#8221;]<div class=\"clearboth\"><\/div><style>#thegem-divider-69e611d312674 {margin-top: 600px !important;}<\/style><div id=\"thegem-divider-69e611d312674\" class=\"gem-divider  \" style=\"\" ><\/div>[\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[vc_row][vc_column][vc_empty_space][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row full_width=&#8221;stretch_row&#8221; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1542286470121{background-color: #ffffff !important;}&#8221;][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243; css_animation=&#8221;bottom-to-top&#8221;][vc_column_text] Who we are [\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1654770486493{margin-top: -15px !important;}&#8221;] Siena Opera della Metropolitana [\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_column_text css_animation=&#8221;none&#8221;]The&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":1,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"sfsi_plus_gutenberg_text_before_share":"","sfsi_plus_gutenberg_show_text_before_share":"","sfsi_plus_gutenberg_icon_type":"","sfsi_plus_gutenberg_icon_alignemt":"","sfsi_plus_gutenburg_max_per_row":"","_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-32719","page","type-page","status-publish"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/operaduomo.siena.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/32719","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/operaduomo.siena.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/operaduomo.siena.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/operaduomo.siena.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/operaduomo.siena.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=32719"}],"version-history":[{"count":13,"href":"https:\/\/operaduomo.siena.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/32719\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":34178,"href":"https:\/\/operaduomo.siena.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/32719\/revisions\/34178"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/operaduomo.siena.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=32719"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
