HOME LOCATIONS SERVICES BLOG CONTACTS LOCATIONS \ HISTORIC HOUSES Rospigliosi Palace HISTORIC HOUSES The building is located in the heart of the historic center of Rome, on the Quirinale hill. The construction dates back to 1611 by the will of Scipione Borghese, designed by Vasanzio and Maderno. The internal decorations are attributed to Guido Reni, Paoul Bril, Orazio Gentileschi and other famous artists of the '600. In the following years the palace changed ownership: Cardinal Guido Bentivoglio followed the Borghese family, then Cardinal Mazarino, and in 1704, the Rospigliosi Pallavicini family. In the palace there are two splendid private art galleries that hold works by Botticelli, Signorelli, Carracci and Guercino. Today the palace is presented in various bodies dominating the central garden, in front of the main entrance, where the loggia-belvedere stands out, while on the back, the buildings built in the first half of the 19th century, create a pleasant atmosphere, with a series of small courtyards, joined together by suggestive passages. In an internal courtyard we find a nymphaeum rich in various decorations and shells; on the sides it has two caryatids and ends with a broken tympanum in the center of which there is a coat of arms. The ancient nymphaeum in the "secret garden" of the main building, enriched by period statues, closes the perspective of the "noble portico". In the sixties through the interest of Princess Elvina Pallavicini, with the assistance of the General Directorate of Antiquities and Arts and the Superintendence of Monuments of Lazio, the restoration work was begun to restore the palace to its ancient splendor.

The construction of "Il Poggio" was commissioned by the Della Porta family in the center of the vineyard of the same name, but it was Cardinal Albani who bought it in the second half of the 1700s, transforming it into a residence. The halls on the ground floor, decorated with allegorical frescoes by the Cardinal's master painters, and the architecture of the facade with three large arches surmounted by a balcony flanked by two towers date back to this period. Subsequent additions to the main body, made in the nineteenth century, have made it the beautiful Villa which has survived to the present day. LOCATION DETAILS ...
