The exhibition titled “Raphael and the invention of the grotesque” is a good chance to visit a small part of the immense Domus Aurea - the house of the famous emperor Nero - recently restored and reopened to the public.

During an immersive exhibition, made with visual projections, you will discover what was Rome and what happened just before the construction of Colisseum. At the same time, you will learn about the Renaissance, when the forgotten roman paintings of the Domus Aurea, hidden underground for centuries, were suddenly rediscovered and copied by the best painters.

Domus Aurea

We will visit Octagonal Room and the five surrounding rooms, the exhibition Raffaello Nella Domus Aurea. L’invenzione delle grotesque is accompanied by remarkable interactive and multimedia devices telling the extraordinary story of the rediscovery of ancient paintings buried in the "caves" of Nero's original Domus Aurea accompany the invention of grotesques. The exhibition has a dedicated entrance. It consists of a walkway that, from the park of Colle Oppio, creeps among the ruins, touching them, until it reaches the Octagonal Room of the Domus Aurea, passing through one of the original underground galleries of the Baths of Trajan. Thanks to this idea, it is possible to discover the stratifications of history and the beauty of the underground environments of this extraordinary imperial residence. A luminous guideline leads directly to the heart of the Neronian building.

Loved this tour, it was amazing! The VR brought it to the next level. Our guide was knowledgeable. I am so glad we did this tour.
To see this ancient palace brought back to life is really stunning.

This was one of our highlights of our trip of both Naples (pompeii and Vesuvius) and Rome. The tour guide was great - just the right amount of background and detail about what we were seeing. The virtual reality really brought the location to life - I got goose bumps seeing it as it was in the first century AD. Would definitely recommend.
Stunning

Amazing place, great guide. Frescoes were historic and beautiful. Spaces so magnificent. Nero did something good.

The company sold me tickets for a non-existing experience - the venue was closed and I was not informed about it. I bought the tickets a few months in advance and now I will have to claim my money back - the company has not provided me with any information so far!

The site was remarkable. The guide was excellent. It was disappointing that the tour was directed more to the Egyptian influence into Rome and Nero. I expected the tour to concentrate more and the virtual reality project to be centered on Nero and the palace.
