The museums are currently located on the ancient Capitol Hill dominated at the time by the gigantic temple of the Capitoline triad (Jupiter, Juno and Minerva) before which the Emperors made the sacrifice to thank the gods for their triumphal return to the capital of the Empire. Indeed, while walking on this hill, you really breathe the myths and legends of the oldest times. Moreover, it is one of the first European museums opened to the public in 1471 by Pope Sixtus IV. A dedication still kept today in one of the museum rooms indicates that the Pope's will was not to give certain works from his personal collection, but to restore to the population works, symbols of the city and grandeur. of his people. These works are still visible today to make us travel through history.
