The Galleria Doria Pamphilj sits inside Palazzo Doria Pamphilj on Via del Corso, four minutes' walk from the Pantheon. The gallery is the private collection of one of Rome's surviving noble families — the Doria, the Pamphilj, the Landi and the Aldobrandini — and includes paintings by Caravaggio, Raphael, Titian and Velázquez.
The standout work is Velázquez's 1650 portrait of Pope Innocent X, which Francis Bacon spent decades reinterpreting. The pope was a Pamphilj. The portrait still hangs in the same room the family chose for it.
How much does it cost?
Standard adult ticket is €16 and includes the gallery audio guide narrated by Jonathan Pamphilj — the head of the current family — talking through the rooms in his own house. Reductions:
- EU citizens 11–25: €11
- Under 11: free
- Audio guide is included for everyone — do not skip it
Combo tickets pairing the Doria with the Vittoriano rooftop or with the Borghese Gallery are available through ticket resellers — see the booking options below.
What you should not miss
Five rooms matter most:
- The Velázquez Room. The 1650 portrait of Innocent X is in a small dedicated chamber with a Bernini bust of the same pope facing it. The room is built around the painting.
- The Hall of Mirrors. A 60-metre gilded gallery modelled on Versailles, lined with classical sculpture. The most photographed room in the building.
- The Caravaggio Room. Two early Caravaggios — Rest on the Flight into Egypt and Penitent Magdalene — hung side by side, painted around 1595.
- The Aldobrandini Room. Raphael's Double Portrait and Titian's Salome with the Head of John the Baptist.
- The private apartments. Open since 2009 — the only chance you get to walk through rooms still actively used by the family for receptions.
How to get there and when to go
Address: Via del Corso 305. Walking time from major points:
- Pantheon: 4 minutes
- Trevi Fountain: 6 minutes
- Altare della Patria: 3 minutes
- Spagna metro (Line A): 10 minutes
Open daily 09:00–19:00 (last entry 18:00). The third Wednesday of each month it closes — check the official site before you walk over. Best visit windows: weekdays from 09:00–11:00 or after 16:00. The gallery is rarely overcrowded — a major reason to choose it over the Borghese on a tight schedule.
“The Doria Pamphilj is the right pick on a second visit to Rome, when the queues at the Vatican and Borghese have worn you down. Walk in, take 90 minutes, leave with a Velázquez and two Caravaggios in your head. The audio guide is one of the only ones in the city worth listening to in full.”
