Discover one of Rome’s finest private art collections

The gallery houses an extraordinary collection of Renaissance and Baroque masterpieces by legends like Caravaggio, Raphael, Titian, and Velázquez, offering a rare glimpse into the artistic tastes of Rome’s noble families.

Explore the opulent Hall of Mirrors

Inspired by Versailles, this glittering hall features Venetian mirrors and frescoes depicting the Labors of Hercules. The lavish design showcases the grandeur of 18th-century aristocratic life.

Walk through historic palace interiors

The gallery is set within Palazzo Doria Pamphilj, a 16th-century palace still owned by the family. Its richly decorated rooms and vaulted ceilings transport you back to Rome’s golden age.

Experience art in its original setting

Unlike traditional museums, the gallery preserves its late-18th-century arrangement, allowing you to enjoy the artwork as it was intended to be displayed in a noble residence.

Avoid crowds for an intimate experience

Unlike the Vatican Museums, the Doria Pamphilj Gallery offers a quieter and more personal exploration of art and history, making it perfect for those seeking an uncrowded cultural experience.

  • All visits to the Doria Pamphilj Gallery require advance booking — tickets are timed-entry only, and you won’t be allowed in without a reservation. It’s best to arrive a little early, as late arrivals won’t be admitted. Once inside, your ticket covers access to both the gallery and the palace interiors, so you don’t need to worry about getting separate tickets for each.
  • That said, if you're planning to attend an evening concert, book a private guided tour, or join the After-Hours Opera experience, keep in mind that these are special experiences with separate tickets — they aren’t included in the standard entry.
  • Every ticket comes with an audio guide, available in English, Italian, French, or Spanish. It’s a great way to explore at your own pace while learning more about the Pamphilj family, their impressive art collection, and the history behind the palace rooms you’re walking through.
  • The gallery’s central location makes it easy to pair with nearby landmarks like the ​Pantheon, ​Capitoline Museums, ​Altare della Patria glass elevator, or Piazza Venezia. If you're up for a little extra exploring, combo tickets are a great way to save both time and money — they include skip-the-line access to the gallery plus other major Roman sights.
  • Here’s a tip: most museums in Rome are closed on Mondays, but not this one. So if you're in town at the start of the week and looking for a quieter cultural stop, the Doria Pamphilj Gallery is a solid pick.
  • The entrance is wheelchair accessible, but the structure of the gallery from the inside is not fully adapted to suit the needs of disabled visitors. There are no ramps, lifts, or seating areas inside, which may present challenges for visitors with reduced mobility.
