Villa Farnesina is open to the public. The ground-floor loggia Cupid and Psyche and the loggia of Galatea contain frescoes attributed to Raphael, while the first floor’s Hall of Perspectives features a fresco by Peruzzi depicting a colonnade overlooking the hills and the city of Rome—trompe l'oeil techniques lend the painting a 3D appearance.
Explore the interior independently with the aid of an audio guide, which is included with the admission price. Alternatively, take a guided tour. English-language tours run twice weekly on Saturday and Sunday mornings. Some guided tours of Rome’s Trastevere neighborhood include entry to Villa Farnesina, as well as a guide who can speak to the luxurious lives enjoyed by Rome’s Renaissance-era elite.
