Museo di Palazzo Venezia, Art museum in central Rome, Italy

The National Museum of Palazzo Venezia displays medieval and Renaissance art collections across multiple exhibition halls within a 15th-century palace structure.

Cardinal Pietro Barbo commissioned the construction of Palazzo Venezia between 1455 and 1467, using materials from ancient Roman structures including the Colosseum.

The museum exhibits an extensive collection of Renaissance paintings, wooden sculptures, ceramics, tapestries, and armor representing Italian artistic heritage through centuries.

Visitors can explore the museum from Tuesday through Sunday between 8:30 AM and 7:30 PM, with reduced admission prices for students and seniors.

The palace served as Mussolini's headquarters from 1929 to 1943, featuring a continuously illuminated world map room as a symbol of governmental activity.
