Santa Maria della Pietà psychiatric hospital, History museum and national heritage site in Monte Mario, Rome, Italy

Santa Maria della Pietà is a former psychiatric hospital in Rome that now functions as a museum space. The complex displays medical equipment, personal belongings, and installations that document different treatment approaches throughout its history.

The institution was established in the 16th century as a place to care for people with mental health conditions. It operated as a hospital until the late 20th century, when it closed and transformed into a cultural space.

The collection reflects how society approached mental health care over centuries, showing the daily routines and relationships between patients, staff, and doctors. Personal objects on display reveal the human side of institutional life.

The site is located in Rome and easily accessible by public transportation. The complex is equipped with ramps and elevators to accommodate visitors with mobility needs.

An artist named Gianfranco Baieri lived and worked within the hospital as both a patient and staff member, creating unique records of daily life there. His perspective offers a personal glimpse into the place's story.
