Culture in Rome

Rome, the capital of Italy, carries its cultural history visibly across the city. The Colosseum and the Baths of Caracalla speak to its ancient past, while the Capitoline Museums hold one of the most significant collections of classical sculpture. In Vatican City, St. Peter's Basilica and the Cortile del Belvedere form a remarkable ensemble of art and architecture. The Spanish Steps and Piazza di Spagna shape everyday urban life, as does the Trevi Fountain. Places such as the Casa di Goethe, Campo Verano, and the nearby Castello di Oricola add further layers to the city's rich cultural fabric.
