About Capitoline Museums

The Capitoline Museums (Musei Capitolini) are a group of museums located in Piazza del Campidoglio on Capitoline Hill, designed by Michelangelo. Housed in the Palazzo dei Conservatori and Palazzo Nuovo, the museums are connected by an underground corridor. Founded in 1471 by Pope Sixtus IV with a donation of ancient bronzes, the museums now display a vast collection of Roman statues, inscriptions, Renaissance art, and more, all closely tied to the history of Rome. Owned by the city, they offer a deep dive into Rome’s artistic and archaeological heritage.
