Villa Patrizi, 18th century villa in Nomentano district, Rome, Italy
The central building complex features marble halls, painted walls, and brick ceilings, surrounded by gardens with palm trees and century-old cycads.
Cardinal Giovanni Battista Patrizi commissioned architect Sebastiano Cipriani to design this Rococo-style villa in 1716, which suffered damage during the 1849 conflicts.
The villa contained Pannini's fresco 'Allegory of the Sun Chariot', later transferred and donated to the Italian Senate in 1928.
Located at Piazza della Croce Rossa 1, the building currently houses offices of Italian State Railways and the Ministry of Infrastructure and Transport.
During construction of the railway headquarters, workers discovered and subsequently reburied the ancient catacombs of San Nicomede beneath the property.
