Palazzo Doria Pamphilj (Rome, Italy)
Palazzo Doria Pamphilj
Palazzo Pamphilj, also spelled Palazzo Pamphili, is a palace facing onto the Piazza Navona in Rome, Italy. It was built between 1644 and 1650. Historically a place was chosen for elegant parties and literary salons.
The splendid monumental complex of Palazzo Doria Pamphilj, whose first nucleus dates back to the mid-fifteenth century, contains five courtyards, a sumptuous monumental vestibule, three entrance halls, four magnificent stairways, a series of splendidly decorated rooms, and a gallery that exhibits in an eighteenth-century way the works of art of one of the most glorious Italian collections of the Baroque period.
Larger than many European royal palaces and still the residence of the Doria Pamphilj family, it is the most important inhabited building in Rome.
The roof terrace is open to the public, with a renowned restaurant and bar that showcases the Roman skyline, and frequent concerts, often featuring Italian opera.
