Princess Salons of Palazzo Brancaccio

A Historic Residence of Art, Culture, and Innovation

Palazzo Brancaccio, the last princely residence built in Rome, stands as a masterpiece of elegance and cultural refinement. Located on Via Merulana 248, between the Esquiline Hill and the Domus Aurea of Emperor Nero, the palace was commissioned in the late 19th century by Mary Elizabeth Field Brancaccio and designed by renowned architects Gaetano Koch and Luca Carimini.

Throughout its history, Palazzo Brancaccio has served as a symbol of the harmonious dialogue between history and modernity — a place where art, intellect, and society converge. Its grand halls and ornate frescoes reflect the splendor of a bygone era, while its continued role as a venue for cultural and academic gatherings connects the past to the future.

At the heart of the residence lies the celebrated “Saloni della Principessa” (Princess Salons) — a collection of opulent rooms once home to Princess Donna Fernanda Brancaccio. Adorned with gilded ceilings, crystal chandeliers, and exquisite artworks, these salons today host distinguished international events, conferences, and gala evenings that celebrate creativity, knowledge, and human achievement.

As the venue of the World Changers Summit and the Transcendence Book Premiere Presentation, Palazzo Brancaccio continues its legacy as a living testament to the enduring dialogue between culture and progress — where the elegance of history meets the vision of innovation.
