Roman treasure trove,
Capitoline Museum
The Capitoline Museum, the oldest museum since the Middle Ages, is located on the Campidoglio hill, designed by Michelangelo. The permanent collection includes a wide range of artifacts, including a huge ancient stone statue of Constantine II and statues, paintings, coins and vessels from the Greco-Roman period. This museum is the best place to appreciate Roman works of art dating back to ancient times.

One of the reasons the Capitoline Museum is attractive is that it is located on Piazza del Campidoglio, which was designed by Michelangelo himself. The view point on the hill is the ancient Roman Forum, an important historic site! After visiting the museum, I highly recommend taking a leisurely look around the nearby square.
