Palazzo Castellesi, Renaissance palazzo in Borgo district, Rome, Italy

The Palazzo Castellesi displays a symmetrical facade with two levels of pilasters and arched windows along Via della Conciliazione near Saint Peter's Basilica.

Cardinal Adriano Castellesi commissioned the construction of this palace between 1499 and 1517, with architectural design attributed to Donato Bramante.

The palazzo illustrates Renaissance architectural principles through its proportions, rhythmic patterns, and elements inspired by ancient Roman building techniques.

The central location on Via della Conciliazione provides direct access to Vatican City and numerous transportation connections to other parts of Rome.

Cardinal Castellesi presented the palazzo to King Henry VII of England in 1504, before its completion, marking a diplomatic exchange between papal and English courts.
