8 small museums with free admission
Admission is free all year round.
Rome is not just the Colosseum, the Vatican Museums and the Imperial Forums. The city hides little cultural gems, often far from the tourist crowds, which preserve fascinating stories and precious collections. And the good news? Admission is free all year round.
Among these, the Museum of the Walls stands out, where you can walk along the ancient Aurelian walls; the Carlo Bilotti Museum and the Pietro Canonica Museum, both immersed in the greenery of Villa Borghese; and the Barracco Museum, a treasure trove of ancient sculpture. Then there is the Napoleonic Museum, which tells the story of the Bonaparte family in Rome, and the Museum of the Roman Republic, dedicated to the events of 1849. For those who love archaeology, the Villa of Maxentius along the Appian Way and the Casal de’ Pazzi Museum, with its prehistoric finds, are not to be missed.
These museums are perfect for a short but intense visit, perhaps between walks. They offer cosy environments, far from the chaos, and allow you to discover the city with an authentic and different perspective.
