Palazzo Barberini
Palazzo Barberini
GALLERIA NAZIONALE D'ARTE ANTICA
Palazzo Barberini
Built for Pope Urban VIII (real name Maffeo Barberini), the palazzo is now an art gallery that not everyone knows about. For us, this gallery is one of our recommendations, because here you can experience works by Caravaggio, El Greco, Bernini or Borromini in a relaxed manner.
My Rating:
The positives:
In a beautiful baroque palace you can marvel at a very nice art collection in large rooms - and without much crowding!
The negatives:
I didn't notice anything negative.
Fun Tip:
Count the bees! Bees were part of Pope Urban VIII's papal coat of arms (who came from the Barberini family). Throughout the building you will discover bees on different places (walls, paintings, railings...).
