Tactile experience at Palazzo Venezia: the Lapidarium

This visit takes you to the upper loggia of Pope Paul II’s secret garden for a special journey through the Lapidarium of Palazzo Venezia, housed in the Palazzetto di San Marco.

The Lapidarium features over one hundred marble works — from the Classical period to the Renaissance — many of which were unearthed in the early 20th century right in the area of Piazza Venezia.

Through a tactile experience, visitors will explore the forms, textures, and intricate details of these marbles in an immersive, hands-on encounter with history.
