Guided Tours

A visit to the Monument to Victor Emmanuel II, or the Vittoriano, is an unmissable experience for anyone wishing to delve deeper into Italian history and art.Conceived in January 1878 in honor of the first King of Italy, Victor Emmanuel II, and the entire Risorgimento process, the complex has, since 1921, housed the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier and other memorials to our history. Participants enter through the monumental gate on Piazza Venezia, come up to the Altare della Patria and the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier, observe the equestrian statue of Victor Emmanuel II and are left breathless by the sheer size of the Piazzale del Bollettino and the Sommoportico.

For many centuries, Palazzo Venezia was the residence of popes, cardinals, ambassadors, and artists. It's an ancient and majestic Renaissance palace in the heart of Rome. Few buildings in the city, perhaps none, hold a similar wealth of history, art, and culture. The guided tour leads the class through a complex of loggias, walkways, and gardens with precious plants and essences, as well as monumental halls and masterpieces from the Middle Ages to the early 20th century.
