Montecitorio Palace (Palazzo Montecitorio)

Montecitorio Palace, an elegant baroque building in Rome, serves as the seat of the Chamber of Deputies, one of Italy’s houses of parliament. Located in Piazza di Monte Citorio, the palace stands alongside the Obelisk of Montecitorio, adorned with genuine ancient Egyptian hieroglyphics. The structure’s facade, a testament to 17th-century architectural grandeur, overlooks the bustling square. Inside, visitors who manage to gain access can admire the splendid 20th-century art nouveau interior, though the palace is rarely open to the general public.
