Palazzo Borromeo, Renaissance palazzo near Via del Seminario, Rome, Italy
The Palazzo Borromeo features grand architecture with ornate decorations and detailed design elements created by architect Pirro Ligorio in the 16th century.
Following the Lateran Pacts of 1929, Benito Mussolini designated Palazzo Borromeo as the official seat of the Italian Embassy to the Holy See.
The palace hosts annual ceremonies commemorating the Lateran Pacts, bringing together leaders from the Italian government and the Catholic Church.
Located at Viale delle Belle Arti 2, the palace stands between Piazza di Sant'Ignazio and the Pantheon, in the ancient Campus Martius area.
The building changed hands multiple times, from the Colonna family to antiquarian Ugo Jandolo, before becoming a diplomatic headquarters.
