Largo di Torre Argentina

The ruins of Torre Argentina, a tower that was erected on the site where Burckard, papal master of ceremonies, had his house built, is today the home of a large volunteer cat shelter.

Reviewed By Noraatc - Sudbury, United States

Hard to believe that the ruins of the Roman temples of Largo di Torre Argentina date back to the 3rd century BC. This vast site known as the place of Julius Caesar’s assassination is located in the heart of Rome, on the intersection of two busy streets very close to the Jewish Ghetto, so it is really easy to visit it. Nothing much is left from the Ancient Rome days and you cannot browse there, but you can walk around and see the ruins from the street level. It is s very special place in Rome: the cat sanctuary, where strayed cats live their happy lives, they are well fed, neutered and taken care of by the small group of volunteers. When I walked around the site, three friendly and good looking cats gave me the warmest welcome. The furry gray kitty on the photo I posted was especially affectionate though she looks very serious on the picture????. Lovely!!!
