knowledge
Rome accumulates knowledge across millennia. The Forum of Caesar and the Forum of Nerva trace the evolution of Roman civic life, while the Forum Boarium and Circus Maximus reveal the city's earliest urban layers. The Baths of Caracalla demonstrate the engineering ambitions of the imperial age, and the Catacomb of Callixtus preserves the beliefs of early Christian communities. The Casa di Goethe documents how successive generations of scholars and artists came to study the city. Within Vatican City, the Gallery of Maps charts geographical knowledge in paint, and the Istituto Nazionale per la Grafica holds a significant collection of printed works. The Spanish Steps and Trevi Fountain anchor these sites within the living fabric of the city.

On the Pincio hill near the Villa Borghese, Romania has maintained a research institute in Rome since 1920. Founded at the initiative of archaeologist Vasile Pârvan and historian Nicolae Iorga, it was designed to give Romanian scholars access to the city's archives and classical heritage. The current building dates from 1933, designed in a neoclassical style by Romanian architect Petre Antonescu. Today it operates under the Romanian Cultural Institute, hosting exhibitions, concerts, and academic events that bring Romanian culture to Rome.
