Palazzo Valentini not far from Piazza Venezia in central Rome, Italy. Since 1873 it has been the base of the provincial and prefectural administration of Rome. The Palazzo`s art treasures include the statue of `Aeneas and Anchises` and `Europa`, made by Sandro Chia to commemorate the 135th anniversary of the provincial administration of Rome, now located at the entrance. After a major restoration the excavations under Palazzo Valentini have now opened to the public on a permanent basis. A small baths complex dating from the 2nd century AD was discovered seven meters below street level under the basement of the building. It is believed to be part of a nearby residential scheme found over 100 years ago prior to the 1907 construction of Palazzo delle Assicurazioni in Piazza Venezia.
