Roma Capitale, Municipal administration in Rome, Italy.
Roma Capitale is the municipal administration of Rome in Italy, responsible for infrastructure, waste collection, and local services across the urban area along the Tiber River. The organization divides into 15 districts and manages parks, roads, and public facilities throughout the territory.
The city government adopted the name Roma Capitale in 2009, replacing the former Comune di Roma. This change granted the city new powers and a distinct legal status within the Italian administrative framework.
The administration works from the Senatorial Palace on the Capitoline Hill, where the mayor and city council hold their regular sessions. This building stands in the old center and has served as the seat of city government for centuries.
The offices spread across the city, with the main headquarters located near the Capitoline Hill and branch offices in each district. Residents can reach most services through online platforms or in person at service counters, which open on weekdays.
This administration governs territory that surrounds Vatican City, an independent state entirely within the city limits. The arrangement creates unique jurisdictional questions related to roads, utilities, and borders that exist nowhere else in Europe.
