Lonely Planet review for Museo Nazionale Etrusco di Villa Giulia

A short walk down Viale delle Belle Arti leads to the Museo Nazionale Etrusco di Villa Giulia. Italy’s finest collection of pre-Roman treasures is considerately presented in Pope Julius III’s 16th-century pleasure palace. The villa was built between 1551 and 1555, and Vasari, Vignola and Michelangelo were all advisors on its construction. It originally had private access to and from the Tiber via a special path through surrounding gardens and vineyards.
