Main Features

Description

sixteenth-century building one of the most beautiful and important historic buildings in Italy. It is located in the heart of the town of Cerveteri, in the wonderful Piazza Santa Maria, facing the famous Etruscan Museum, technologically the most advanced in the upper Lazio.
The building, with the facade of great soberness, is characterized by an elegant colonnade on two floors which, in particular on the upper floor, creates a beautiful covered terrace where you can sit or admire the view.
Composed of the overlap of two floors of different periods, the building was probably built in its first structure by Franceschetto Cybo or Bartolomeo della Rovere in the fifteenth century.
The windows and the portal still retain the sixteenth-century structure with round arches, while the portico, the loggia and other internal structures have been added later. Probably in the 17th century.
Its rooms contain frescoes from the Rossi area (a student of Benvenuto Cellini) on ceilings and walls, and are adorned by wonderful bas-relief works of Benvenuto Cellini. The Salone delle Feste, which extends for more than 200 square meters, offers an unforgettable welcome.
In the building there are famous characters such as Papa Innocenzo VIII, who came to these lands for boar hunting, the famous English writer David Herbert Lawrence, who has lived here during his Italian stay, and the musician Georg Friedrich Händel, who composed the famous cantata "Diana Cacciator" ; the great Caldara musician and great sculptors such as Benvenuto Cellini.
Later, being the city of Cerveteri known for its Etruscan Necropolis, various archaeologists of international renowned have stayed at the Palazzo dei Ruspoli of Cerveteri to follow the excavations of the Necropolis including, in the early years of the 20th century, Re Gustavo of Sweden, a great enthusiast of archeology. While recently the Princess Margaret of England was a guest in the building of the Ruspoli Princes.
Strong of this tradition of ancient welcome, the Palace has today been converted into a residence with four exclusive suites and a location for professional and private events, also available for movie sets.
