Palazzo Firenze, Renaissance palace in Campo Marzio district, Rome, Italy

The Palazzo Firenze features a trapezoidal layout with a facade designed by architect Bartolomeo Ammannati, incorporating Renaissance architectural elements and detailed stonework.

The palace construction began under Pope Paul III's renovation project for Campo Marzio in 1550, connecting the Pincio area to the Port of Ripetta.

The interior contains frescoes by Prospero Fontana in three rooms, including the loggia, Camerino dei Continenti, and Sala del Granduca, depicting mythological scenes.

The building serves as headquarters for both the Dante Alighieri Society and the Italian National Commission for UNESCO since 1926.

The architect created an illusionary perspective effect on the facade to compensate for the irregular shape of the building site.
