Rome, Palazzo Venezia, seat of the Polo Museale del Lazio.

The Polo Museale del Lazio (Museum Center of Lazio) is an office of Italy's Ministry of Cultural Heritage. Its seat is in Rome in the Palazzo Venezia.

History

The office was established on August 29, 2014 and started to work on December 11, 2014, acquiring and organizing museums, institutions and archaeological areas previously managed by eleven offices. Like the others Poli Museali of other regions of Italy, it depends from the Direzione Generale Musei of the same MIBACT.
