The Museum of Rome (Museo di Roma), in the centrally located Palazzo Braschi, displays the social context and artistic activities that were developed in Rome from the Middle Ages to the early twentieth century.
The Museo di Roma has a rich and extensive collection consisting of thousands of works, including paintings, sculptures, furniture, clothing, pottery, photographs, and even some architectural elements that are a testament to history and society’s lifestyle throughout different periods of time. Remember that the exhibition is made up of a limited number of these works.
On the lower floor are the works from the time of Pope Pius VI, including portraits of members of the papal court, while on the upper floor you can see the paintings, sculptures and frescoes from the households of different aristocratic families of Rome.
Although the Museo di Roma bears a prestigious name and a prime location (near the Piazza Navona), we believe that you can visit dozens of much more entertaining and interesting museums in the city. The quality-price ratio is abysmal.
