    National Roman Museum - The Baths of Diocletian

    The Baths of Diocletian are the largest and most monumental bathing complex ever built in ancient Rome. Constructed between 298 and 306 AD, they could accommodate up to 3,000 people at once and served as a grand social, cultural, and recreational hub for the city. Today, the site forms part of the National Roman Museum and preserves impressive architectural remains, including vast halls, courtyards, and galleries that reveal the scale and sophistication of Roman engineering. Highlights include the Michelangelo-designed basilica of Santa Maria degli Angeli, ancient inscriptions, sculptures, and artifacts that offer a remarkable window into daily life during the Roman Empire.

    Museo Nazionale Romano - Palazzo Altemps

    Palazzo Altemps is a Renaissance palace located just steps from Piazza Navona and is part of the National Roman Museum. It houses an extraordinary collection of classical sculptures, many of which belonged to noble Roman families such as the Ludovisi. The palace beautifully combines elegant 16th-century architecture with masterpieces of ancient art, including the famous Ludovisi Throne, the Gaul Killing Himself and His Wife, and finely restored Greek and Roman statues. Its quiet courtyards, frescoed rooms, and refined atmosphere make it one of Rome’s most evocative and less-crowded museum experiences.
