Yes, but only minor repairs. It was damaged by gunfire during WWII, and more recently had its stone inspected and cleaned from pollution.
Technical work has also been conducted to reinforce the foundations, by filling hollow spaces with liquid concretes, and counter forces in the upper parts of the building. The repairs are not noticeable to the public.
