The 16th-century Collegio Nazareno is the oldest scholastic institution in Rome, and one of the oldest in Italy. Situated in the Rione di Trevi – the fountain is two blocks away – the palazzo educated the city’s underprivileged boys and orphans (and later the sons of the bourgeoisie and aristocracy) under the auspices of the charitable Scuole Pie, founded 1617, until the school’s closure in 1999. Its benefactors were princes and popes (often one and the same man, back in the day). It resisted the occupations of both Napoleon and the Nazis. Today, its top floor houses the headquarters of the Partito Democratico; firebrand opposition leader Elly Schlein probably enjoys the views from its vast roof terrace when on her coffee break.
