Gioacchino Ersoch

Gioacchino Ersoch (; born Joachim Herzog; 6 July 1815 – 12 June 1902) was an Italian architect active in the urban planning of the city of Rome throughout the second half of the 19th century.

Early life and education Ersoch was born to papal official Giuseppe Herzog and his wife Teresa Rudolf von Rhor. His paternal family was originally from the Swiss town of Beromünster, in the Canton of Lucerne, and had subsequently relocated to Herznach, in Aargau; part of it had already moved to Rome around the mid-18th century. He later chose to Italianize his name, the first in his family to do so.
