Museums and art in Lazio
Lazio’s artistic heritage spans millennia, ranging from the sprawling Roman ruins of Ostia Antica and Hadrian’s Villa to the avant-garde sculptures of Niki de Saint Phalle’s Tarot Gardens. This selection highlights Rome’s Baroque mastery, including Caravaggio’s canvases in the Church of Saint Louis the French and Borromini’s architectural innovations at Sant'Ivo alla Sapienza. The collection also features historic private galleries like the Doria Pamphilj, the Renaissance Orsini-Odescalchi Castle overlooking Lake Bracciano, and the seaside Villa of Tiberius, which houses ancient sculptures inspired by the Odyssey.
