Villa Giulia
The Villa Giulia stands in an area of Rome known as the 'Vigna Vecchia' (which was once against the city walls) lying on the slopes where 'Monte Parioli' descends to the Tiber. The current villa is only a small part of a former property, comprising three vineyards. Here a party villa or 'Villa Suburbana' was built for Pope Julius III, who was an affable, deeply literate connoisseur of the arts, but no theologian.
