Palazzo Venezia, Renaissance palace in Rome, Italy.
The Palazzo Venezia stands between Piazza Venezia and Via del Plebiscito, featuring a square tower and substantial walls built with stones from ancient monuments.
The Venetian Cardinal Pietro Barbo ordered the construction of the palace in 1455, which later served as both a papal residence and embassy of Venice.
The National Museum of Palazzo Venezia contains medieval and Renaissance art collections, including works by Pisanello, Giorgione, and Carlo Maratta.
The museum opens daily with reduced rates for European youth visitors and free admission on the first Sunday of each month.
During the fascist period, Mussolini used the palace as his government headquarters and kept his office lights on at night to project dedication.
