Palatine Hill the ancient palatium, historical residence of the Caesars, from whose name is derived the use of the term "Palace" to indicate a seat of official power. Many historical events and attempts of preservation have altered the hill, which is today an extended archeological area, complex and imposing with its ruins of the edifices built by Domitian and rediscovered by archaeologists in the 20th century

Loggia Mattei this is a little Renaissance jewel, the work of Baldassarre Peruzzi and his pupils, set among the ancient imperial ruins of the Palace of Domitian on the Palatine Hill. Having survived the historical-archeological events which affected the hill in the 19th and 20th centuries, it has recently returned to its original splendour thanks to the restitution of several frescoed medallions, previously stored in the collection of the Metropolitan Museum of New York
