What to expect

Uncover the wonders of Palazzo Barberini, an exquisite Baroque edifice in Rome, which serves as the home to the Galleria Nazionale d’Arte Antica. This gallery boasts over 1,400 pieces by renowned artists. Pope Urban VIII commissioned Palazzo Barberini, and its grandeur surpasses even the most opulent residences of Roman nobility from the 17th century.

Feast your eyes on a plethora of artistic works dating from the 13th to the 18th century, crafted by illustrious artists such as Raphael, Filippo Lippi, Bernini, Borromini, Caravaggio, among others. The collection is abundant with masterpieces, including Raphael's "Fornarina", which is particularly famous.

Among the various lavishly adorned rooms, you'll find the expansive central hall that spans the entire height of the building. In this hall's ceiling, you can admire a monumental fresco by Pietro da Cortona, which is one of the finest examples of Baroque illusionism.
