Palazzo Rossi Scotti  

 


Palazzo Rossi Scotti, dating from the 17th century, stands on the foundations of the sustaining wall of Fortezza di Porta Sole in what is now Piazza Rossi Scotti.

Giovanni Battista Rossi Scotti (died 1926), one of the founders of the Museo Archeologico Nazionale, had his important collection here, but it was unfortunately dispersed after his death.

In 2013, a bar was opened in the lovely “hanging” garden behind the palace, the so-called Giardino dell’ Usignolo (garden of the nightingale).
