Tabularium
Bronze She-Wolf
At The Summit of Rome
A private encounter with power,
art, & civic memory.
Perched on Rome’s Capitoline Hill, the Capitoline Museums open a window onto the artistic and political heart of the ancient city. Established in the 15th century and redesigned by Michelangelo himself, they are not only the world’s oldest public museums but also a sanctuary of Rome’s most treasured antiquities.
As you wander through frescoed halls and marble galleries, encounter icons that have defined Rome’s image for centuries: the original Capitoline Wolf, the imposing remains of Constantine’s colossal statue, and the celebrated bronze equestrian statue of Marcus Aurelius. The elegance of the Capitoline Venus, alongside countless deities, emperors, and civic symbols, deepens the story of Rome’s enduring legacy.
In the museum’s very foundations lie fragments of the Temple of Jupiter Capitolinus, once the city’s most sacred sanctuary. Your visit culminates in the Tabularium, a first-century structure overlooking the Roman Forum — a view that binds together the grandeur of past and present.
With the insight of your private guide, this tour is a rich encounter with Rome’s artistry, mythology, and power, told through masterpieces that continue to shape the city’s soul.
This private experience offers an elegant immersion into Rome’s oldest museum collection, guided with expertise that transforms marble and bronze into living history.
