The Colonna Gallery in Rome 

🔸We are in an oasis of peace in the hectic heart of Rome..
🔸We are in Palazzo Colonna, a palace belonging to the Colonna family since the Middle Ages and still inhabited by them today!
🔸But who are the Colonna’s?
🔸You need to know that in Rome through the centuries there has been a lot of noble families, and each one of them had their family palace.
🔸The biggest one is the magnificent Palazzo Colonna!
🔸The Colonna’s have been such an important family for the history of Rome. To give you an example:
✨Pope Martino V was a Colonna, and he was the Pope that brought back to Rome the Pope seat in the 1400s. The Pope seat in fact had been for almost 100 years in Avignon, France. This means that Rome returned being an important city and raised from its ashes thanks to that.
🔸What would Rome look like if Martino V wouldn’t have done that? Certainly very different!
