Galleria Borghese: is one of Rome’s finest art galleries with some of the great masterpieces, including Raphael’s Deposition, Caravaggio’s Jerome, Bernini’s Apollo and Daphne, as well as Titian’s Sacred and Profane Love, among many more.

One of the unusual features of this gallery is that they limit the number of visitors; no more than 360 visitors at a time on the ground floor, and only 90 on the upper floor. It certainly enhances your experience of the museum.
Piazzale del Museo Borghese. Open: Tuesday to Sunday.

Aside from the Sistine Chapel, other significant rooms include ‘Cappella Niccolina’ with paintings by Beato Angelico, and ‘Appartamento Borgia’ with works by Pinturicchio, as well as a number of important 15th century works from the masters of Umbria and Tuscany.
Vatican City. Open: opening days and hours vary hugely throughout the year and you should check before you go.

Municipal Gallery of Modern Art: is housed in a former convent of the Barefooted Carmelites and contains some of the most important pieces of 20th century Italian art, including pieces by Rodin, Depero, Guttuso, Balla, De Chirico and Mafai. The collection is relatively small, but interesting nonetheless. There is also a library here as well extensive archives for students, scholars or anyone who might be interested.
Via F.Crispi 24 Open: Tuesday to Saturday 09:00 to 19:00, Sunday and holidays 09:00 to 13:30.

Some of the display items are slightly gruesome, such as early instruments of torture and execution, but they are certainly interesting. There are a range of photographs, written documents and other objects that provide a fascinating history of criminology and there is a renewed interest in its study in Italy.
Via de Gonfalone. Open: Tuesday and Thursday 14:30 to 18:30, Wednesday, Friday and Saturday 09:00 to 13:00, closed on Sunday and Monday.
