Lonely Planet review for Villa Torlonia

Full of towering pine trees, atmospheric palms and scattered villas, this splendid 19th-century park once belonged to Prince Giovanni Torlonia (1756–1829), a powerful banker and landowner. His large neoclassical villa, the Casino dei Principi, later became the Mussolini family home (1925–43) and, towards the end of WWII, Allied headquarters (1944–47). These days it’s used to stage temporary exhibitions.
