Oriolo Romano, a truly hidden renaissance gem close to Rome. A magnificent Renaissance backdrop for your unique Wedding ! Oriolo Romano is located just near Rome: 15 minutes from Lake Bracciano, 45 minutes from the heart of Rome and 35 minutes from Rome Fiumicino airport.
Oriolo Romano was founded in 1562 by Giorgio Santacroce around a Palace (or Palazzo) he had acquired from the noble family Orsini and which was surrounded by woods. The area was deforested and populated with immigrants from Tuscany and Umbria. Oriolo Romano has a very clearly planned structure with three parallel streets leading to a square closed by a large palace. The main palace, maybe designed by Il Vignola, was modified in the late XVIIth century after Oriolo Romano was acquired in 1671 by the family of Pope Clemens X (1670-76). It is a complex building which seen from different angles appears as town palace, a villa and a a fortress. The Family of Pope Clement X decorated a long gallery (today a museum) with the portraits of 256 popes.
In the wonderful Palazzo of Oriolo Romano, Civil Wedding Ceremonies are held all year long.
