Inside the Galleria Agostiniana and part of Rome’s must-see Basilica of Santa Maria del Popolo, the small Rome Leonardo da Vinci Museum (Museo Leonardo da Vinci) is dedicated entirely to Italy's great engineer and artist, featuring a collection of more than 60 inventions modeled after Leonardo’s machines.
The Basics
Initially a temporary exhibition, the Leonardo da Vinci Museum is now permanently housed adjacent the church on the busy Piazza del Popolo. The museum’s collection includes more than 120 pieces, including life-size machines built from Leonardo’s codices, anatomical studies, and sketches of his most famous Renaissance art, including The Last Supper, Vitruvian Man, and the Sforza equestrian sculpture. The museum is a popular stop during Rome city tours, so booking tickets in advance is recommended to avoid a long wait to enter.
Things to Know Before You Go
- Before or after your museum visit, stop inside the adjacent Basilica of Santa Maria del Popolo to see its famous Caravaggio paintings.
- The museum has a number of interactive machines and multimedia videos, making this a good option for families traveling with children.
- The museum is wheelchair accessible.
- Due to its small size, there are no food or beverage stands in the museum, though there are a number of dining options on the square.
How to Get There
The museum is located in Piazza del Popolo, not far from the Spanish Steps. Take tram 2; bus 89, 61, 495, 490, or 117; or metro line A (Flaminio stop).
When to Get There
The museum is a nice respite from the heat of Rome during summer, so plan to visit during the warmest midday hours.
