Palazzo Rondinini

Palazzo Rondinini, 18th-century palace on Via del Corso, Rome, Italy.

Palazzo Rondinini is an 18th-century palace on Via del Corso in Rome, with a symmetrical facade, two entrance doorways, and a column-supported balcony on the main floor. The ground-floor windows have ornate frames, and the interior rooms are spacious with decorative details from the time of construction.

Marquis Giuseppe Rondinini commissioned architects Gabriele Valvassori and Alessandro Dori to design the palace, which was completed in 1764. In the early 20th century the building changed hands several times, and the art collection was split among different institutions.

The collection assembled by Marquis Giuseppe Rondinini included Roman inscriptions, ancient columns and marbles, and the Medusa Rondanini, a head now in the Glyptothek in Munich. The Pietà Rondanini, bought in 1744, was also kept here before moving to Milan's Castello Sforzesco. From 1990 to 2023 the piano nobile housed the Circolo degli Scacchi.

The palace stands on Via del Corso in the Campo Marzio district; the facade and the double columned portal with its balcony face the street and can be seen from the pavement. The piano nobile, with its frescoed rooms, ballroom and gallery, housed the Circolo degli Scacchi from 1990 to 2023 and is not normally open to visitors.

Johann Wolfgang von Goethe visited the palace during his stay in Rome and wrote about the art collection in his travel notes. His account is one of the most detailed records of what the building once contained.
