Palazzo Corsini is a Baroque palace on the Lungotevere in Rome, located on the riverbank and notable for its art collection and historic state rooms.

The palace contains the Corsini collection of paintings and decorative arts, displayed in galleries established within the former family residence. The site also includes formal gardens and faces the Tiber.

The palace dates to earlier historic buildings that were remodelled in Baroque style when acquired by the Corsini family; it later entered public ownership and now hosts parts of the national art collection and cultural institutions.

Palazzo Corsini sits on the western bank of the Tiber in Rome, in the area between Trastevere and the historic centre, accessible from central Rome by riverfront roads and bridges.

• Collection and access: The building is a Baroque palace on the Lungotevere and contains the Corsini collection, managed as part of Rome’s national art collections and open to the public by the gallery’s visiting arrangements.
