Colli Aniene

Colli Aniene is a residential district in northeastern Rome, located between Via Tiburtina and the urban section of the A24 motorway. The neighborhood consists mainly of modern apartment buildings and commercial areas designed to accommodate everyday urban living.

The area was once agricultural land with rolling hills near the Aniene River, but it transformed into an urban residential district through housing cooperatives in the late 1960s. This rapid development fundamentally changed the landscape and created housing opportunities for many families.

The neighborhood takes its name from the nearby Aniene River and is shaped by everyday places such as shops, schools, and the Church of Santa Bernadetta Soubirous. These locations form the backbone of community life and show how residents navigate their daily routines.

The district connects to central Rome through multiple bus lines and nearby metro stations, making commuting straightforward. Proximity to shops and services throughout the neighborhood makes daily life convenient and manageable.

Cervelletta Castle, a 17th-century structure of civil architecture, stands on Roman ruins within the neighborhood's boundaries. This unexpected monument reveals the long history of the place before this residential district was built.
