History

The palace has belonged to many families including the Vila, Volta, Marsili, and Alamandini, before it was purchased by Gian Luca Pallavicini in 1765. The left (east) part of the facade was reconstructed in 1788 based on designs of Alessandro Amadesi.

The baroque staircase was designed circa 1690 by Luigi Casoli. The interior has a grand salon frescoed in 1690 by Giovanni Antonio Burrini. It also has some late 18th century decorations commissioned between 1789 and 1792 by Giuseppe Pallavicini, and completed by Flaminio Minozzi, Filippo Pedrini, Vincenzo Martinelli, Giuseppe Antonio Valliani and Serafino Barozzi, with stuccoes by Giacomo Rossi.

On March 26, 1770, in the palace's Sala della Musica, a young Amadeus Mozart performed here. [2]

The Palazzo Pallavicini-Rospigliosi is a palace in Rome, Italy. It was built by the Borghese family on the Quirinal Hill; its footprint occupies the site where the ruins of the baths of Constantine stood, whose remains still are part of the basement of the main building, the Casino dell'Aurora. Its first inhabitant was the famed art collector Cardinal Scipione Borghese, the nephew of Pope Paul V, who wanted to be housed near the large papal Palazzo Quirinale. The palace and garden of the Pallavicini-Rospigliosi were the product of the accumulated sites and were designed by Giovanni Vasanzio and Carlo Maderno in 1611–16. Scipione owned this site for less than a decade, 1610–16, and commissioned the construction and decoration of the casino and pergolata, facing the garden of Montecavallo. The Roman palace of this name should not be mistaken for the panoramic Villa Pallavicino on the shores of Lake Como in Lombardy. The Palace has also been the scene of important cultural and religious events. On June 6, 1977 Princess Elvina Pallavicini invited in Palazzo Pallavicini Rospigliosi the archbishop monsignor Marcel Lefebvre for a conference on the Second Vatican Council and for the celebration of a Traditiona Mass, under the careful direction of the marquis Roberto Malvezzi, and Frigate Captain marquis Luigi Coda Nunziante di San Ferdinando. Many members of Alleanza Cattolica, the baron Roberto de Mattei, the pharmacologist Giulio Soldani, the sociologist Massimo Introvigne, the psychiatrist Mario Di Fiorino and Attilio Tamburrini and his brother Renato Tamburrini took part to the event.
