Capitoline Hill – Rome’s Political and Artistic Heart

#romanforum Perched above the Forum, Capitoline Hill has been a center of power since ancient times. Once home to the great Temple of Jupiter, it later became the site of Michelangelo’s beautifully designed Piazza del Campidoglio. Today, it houses the Capitoline Museums, where you can see stunning ancient sculptures like the famous statue of the She-Wolf nursing Romulus and Remus. The views from here are spectacular, offering a unique perspective of the Roman Forum below. If you want to explore both Rome’s political and artistic legacy in one place, Capitoline Hill is an absolute must-visit.
