Palatine Museum

The Palatine Museum displays archaeological artifacts, sculptures, and architectural fragments discovered during excavations of the imperial residences on Palatine Hill.

Originally established in the 1800s near Domus Tiberiana, the museum relocated to its current location in 1930 under archaeologist Alfonso Bartoli's direction.

The ground floor exhibits trace Roman civilization from its origins through the Republican period, while the upper floor presents Imperial era collections.

Visitors can access the museum daily from 8:30 AM until one hour before sunset as part of the Colosseum Archaeological Park entrance ticket.

The museum houses the Alexamenos graffito, a third-century carved stone depicting a man worshipping a crucified donkey-headed figure.
