In the heart of Rome, the central Piazza Venezia encompasses one of the city's most significant Renaissance buildings: Palazzo Venezia. Over the centuries, this remarkable location has transformed its purpose, evolving from papal residence to government headquarters, and eventually becoming a museum. Its architecture preserves the traces and memories of these transformations, where architectural features merge with natural forms in a harmonious blend of nature and culture. This rich heritage of stories and eras is unveiled to visitors as they explore the spaces of Palazzo Venezia, weaving a narrative that connects art and architecture, memory and identity. This guided tour is linked to the theme "Architectures: the art of building" for the 2025 European Heritage Days (GEP), an initiative promoted by the Ministry of Culture (MiC).
LOCATION: Palazzo Venezia entrance, via del Plebiscito, 118
