Rome Rose Garden, Public rose garden on Aventine Hill, Rome, Italy.
The Rome Rose Garden spans 10,000 square meters across the Aventine Hill slope, featuring 1,100 rose varieties from numerous countries worldwide.
The site served as a Jewish cemetery from 1645 to 1934, before being transformed into a rose garden under the design of Countess Mary Gayley Senni.
The garden paths form the shape of a menorah, a seven-branched candelabrum, honoring the Jewish heritage of this former cemetery site.
Visitors can access the garden for free during spring flowering from April 21 to June, with opening hours extending from 8:30 AM to 7:30 PM.
The lower section hosts the Premio Roma competition, where new rose varieties compete annually for recognition in international rose cultivation.
