Villa Giulia, Renaissance villa in Flaminio, Rome, Italy

The villa displays three connected courtyards, a hemispherical loggia, and intricate marble staircases leading to a sophisticated two-story nymphaeum structure.

Pope Julius III commissioned the construction of Villa Giulia in 1551, selecting architects Giacomo Barozzi da Vignola and Bartolomeo Ammannati to design this residence.

The National Etruscan Museum at Villa Giulia contains extensive collections of artifacts, including ancient bronze works, pottery, and jewelry from Etruscan settlements.

Visitors can access the villa through public transportation, with the nearest tram stop Flaminio-Belle Arti located 500 meters from the entrance.

The villa features a complex water system connecting to the Acqua Vergine aqueduct, which also supplies water to the Trevi Fountain in Rome.
