About Barberini & GNAM galleries

The Palazzo Barberini, a 17th-century palace near Rome's Piazza Barberini, now houses the "Galleria Nazionale d'Arte Antica," the city's premier collection of ancient paintings. Originally acquired by Maffeo Barberini, later Pope Urban VIII, it was a villa purchased from the Sforza family for his cousins Taddeo, Francesco, and Antonio. Renowned artists like Gian Lorenzo Bernini and Borromini were enlisted to transform the villa into a magnificent palace. Today, it features 187 rooms spread over 12,000 m2, adorned with the Barberini family crest—a bee—found throughout the museum on ceilings and statues.

I loved how easy it was to use. Also, we were only able to get tickets to the coliseum because of the Roma Pass. Al the tours and tickets were sold out however the coliseum official website reserves a certain amount for Roma Pass members and release them the day of. We used the Roma Pass for the bus, metro, and sites.

It was much easier getting tickets into Galleria Barberini than the Bhorgese Gallery since 50 artworks have been moved from Bhorgese to Barberini. Very easy getting tickets online and you just show up at the Barberini venue. The paintings were amazing and so gorgeous which were set in an amazing palazzo. Bonus - Very nice bistro cafe upstairs at the gallery in the Barbetini palazzo gardens, so pretty and serene. Cafe was lovely and spacious at the lovely garden.

The purchase was super easy and access to the bus was also super easy. However, some of the drop-off points were a bit far from the places, which made us a bit confused to find other points. But all in all it was very good. The staff are extremely friendly. I recommend it.
