Casa del Burcardo, 15th century palace in Largo Argentina, Rome, Italy

The Palazzetto del Burcardo features late Gothic architecture with two main sections: a primary residence and a secondary building for stables and servants quarters.

Johannes Burckardt, a papal master of ceremonies from Strasbourg, constructed this palace between 1491 and 1500, incorporating parts of an existing medieval monastery.

The palace houses the Burcardo Theater Library and Museum since 1932, preserving important documents about Italian theatrical history in its collections.

Located at Via del Sudario 44 in Rome, visitors can reach the palace by taking tram line 8 to the Arenula/Cairoli stop.

The underground level contains the entrance to Torre Argentina, while the first floor preserves a small room traditionally identified as Burckardt's private chapel.
