Lonely Planet review for Casa di Augusto
Among the best-preserved buildings on the Palatino is the Casa di Livia, northwest of the Domus Flavia. Home to Augustus’ wife Livia, it was built around an atrium leading onto what were once reception rooms, decorated with frescoes of mythological scenes, landscapes, fruits and flowers. In front is the Casa di Augusto, Augustus’ separate residence. Opened to the public in 2008 after years of restoration, the casa boasts superb frescoes.
