An avant-corps (Italian: avancorpo or risalto, plural risalti, German: Risalit, Polish: ryzalit), a French term literally meaning "fore-body", is a part of a building, such as a porch or pavilion, that juts out from the corps de logis, often taller than other parts of the building. It is common in façades in French Baroque architecture.
Particularly in German architecture, a corner Risalit is where two wings meet at right angles. Baroque three-winged constructions often incorporate a median Risalit in a main hall or a stairwell, such as in Weißenstein Palace and the Roßleben Convent School .
A central avant-corps stands in the middle of the facade.
A side projection is positioned off-centre.
Two wings (usually) running at right angles to each other flow into a corner avant-corps.
Entrance risalit in which the entrance is located.
Torrisalit, in which a gate or a gate passage is located.
The reserve is the facade of the main alignment line of the building, which is receding compared to the front of the risalit. It is also known as Arrierecorps (Arrière-corps, French arrière corps: "behind the structure").
The frontispiece is the gable triangle above a central risalit.
