Description

The Palazzo Patrizi Montoro with its Pinacoteca del Tesoriere, one of the most beautiful historical residences in Rome, is one of the very few private patrician residences open to the public. The palace was opened to the public for the first time in 2013 after a thorough renovation that made it accessible for events and weddings.
It is located in the heart of Rome, more precisely in Piazza San Luigi del Francesi, opposite the church of the same name, which houses three works by Caravaggio.

Inside the Pinacoteca del Tesoriere it is possible to visit more than 800 works of Italian art, frescoes and statues dating back to the 3rd century B.C. The private salons extend over 900 square metres and are located on the main floor of the Palace, and the Imperial Ballroom overlooks Piazza San Luigi dei Francesi. It is one of the very few Roman locations to have a consecrated chapel on the floor.
