Rome Colonna Palace Walking Tour 2 hr

Step inside a Roman palace whose walls hold five centuries of history. On this 120-minute Rome Colonna Palace Walking Tour, explore the changing architectural styles that reflect the eras in which the palace took shape, from its beginnings as a family fortress to its later role in the story of the city.

Visit the austere halls where Pope Martin V lived from 1420 to 1431. Elected in 1417, he used his time in Rome to plan a cultural, urban, and administrative revival after years of upheaval. You’ll also hear how Palazzo Colonna escaped the destruction of the 1527 sack of Rome, when troops serving Emperor Charles V burned many buildings across the city. A Blue Badge guide leads the visit, and Galleria Colonna tickets are included.

Discover a remarkable chapter of Rome’s past on the Rome Colonna Palace Walking Tour, and experience the palace’s history in the rooms where it unfolded.
