Roma - Monte Palatino
Campitelli | Via di San Gregorio
The Palatine Hill is an archaeological site open to the public.
From the start of the Empire (27 BC) Augustus built his palace there and the hill gradually became the exclusive domain of emperors; the ruins of the palaces of at least Augustus, Tiberius, and Domitia, can still be seen.
The Palace of Domitian which dominates the site and looks out over the Circus Maximus was rebuilt largely during the reign of Domitian over earlier buildings of Nero.
Later emperors particularly the Severans made significant additions to the buildings.
