It's a really ancient palace, whose origines date back to 1400, when it belonged to the Salviati Family, and was later inherited, during the
XIXth Century, as one of the many propeties of the Borghese family, whose coat of arms still dominates the main facade.
With its unquestionable importance, Palazzo Borghese is without any doubt, the ideal residence for the organization of gala dinners, weddings, cerimonies and particular events.
