The experience
Step into the heart of medieval history with a ticket to the grand Palazzo di Bonifacio VIII. This ancient structure, nestled in the town center, dates back to the 13th century. It once belonged to the illustrious Caetani family, notably the home of Pope Bonifacio VIII himself.
Within the palace walls, you'll discover a treasure trove of art and culture. Expansive frescoed halls, priceless paintings, exquisite artwork, and fine furniture await your exploration. Each room offers a glimpse into the opulence of medieval life and the intrigue of the period's politics.
The palace's star attraction? The famous Sala dello Schiaffo or "Slap Room". Here unfolded a shocking event that sent ripples through medieval European history. As commanded by the leader of French Soldiers, Nogaret, Giacomo Sciarra Colonna struck the Pope. This audacious act set the stage for the Avignon period.
Your journey into the past begins here, at the Palazzo di Bonifacio VIII.
