Discovering Palazzo Venezia

For centuries, Palazzo Venezia was home to popes, cardinals, ambassadors, and artists — a grand Renaissance residence in the very heart of Rome.

Few buildings in the city — perhaps none — hold such a rich tapestry of history, art, and culture within their walls.

This guided tour invites participants to step inside and explore the palace’s hidden corners: elegant loggias, ancient walkways, and lush gardens filled with fragrant flowers and greenery.

Inside, the expansive and stately rooms showcase masterpieces spanning from the Middle Ages to the early 20th century — a journey through time in one of Rome’s most storied landmarks.

This activity will be conducted in Italian.
