Palazzo Orsini Pio Righetti, Renaissance palace in Parione district, Rome, Italy.
The Palazzo Orsini Pio Righetti stands on Via del Biscione, featuring a grand facade adorned with sculptural elements including pine cones and lions.
The palace, constructed around 1450, was built upon the ancient foundations of the Temple of Venus Victrix from the Theatre of Pompey.
The building represents the architectural transition between ancient Roman structures and Renaissance design, with modifications made during the 17th century.
Visitors can observe the exterior of the palace from Campo de' Fiori and Piazza del Biscione, as the interior remains closed to public access.
During excavations beneath the palace courtyard in 1864, workers discovered a gilded bronze statue of Hercules, now displayed in the Vatican Museum.
