Palazzo Santacroce alla Regola, Renaissance palace in Regola district, Rome, Italy.
The palace features three main floors with a mezzanine level, decorated windows with stucco festoons, and two corner balconies on different levels.
The Santacroce family commissioned architect Carlo Maderno to design the palace between 1598 and 1602, with Francesco Peparelli completing the facades from 1630 to 1640.
Cardinal Prospero Santacroce introduced tobacco to Italy from Portugal during his time as apostolic nuncio, leading to tobacco being called 'Santacroce grass'.
The palace currently houses the Russian Center for Science and Culture and serves as a location for Cornell University programs.
The interior courtyard contains a fountain depicting Venus emerging from a shell, framed by an arch supported by telamons dating from the 18th century.
