Villa Gabrielli al Gianicolo, Renaissance villa on Janiculum Hill, Rome, Italy.

The Villa Gabrielli incorporates multiple buildings across the northern section of Janiculum Hill, offering direct views toward St Peter's Basilica dome.

Prince Pietro Gabrielli transformed scattered gardens into a unified estate in the 18th century, engaging architect Francesco Rust for the renovation project.

From 1820 to 1840, the villa gained recognition when Carlotta Bonaparte held social gatherings, attracting European nobility and intellectuals.

The villa houses the Pontifical North American College, Pontifical Urban College, and Pontifical Urbaniana University within its extensive grounds.

In 1869, Pope Pius IX acquired the villa for the papal administration, leading to its current status as an extraterritorial zone under the Lateran Pacts.
