What is Quartiere Coppedè?
Quartiere Coppedè is an unexpected and bizarre area in Rome, nestled
within the Trieste district in the northern part of the city. The
fantastical mix of Ancient Greek, Roman Baroque, Mannerist, Medieval,
and, overall, Art Nouveau mishmash was brought to life by Florentine
architect Gino Coppedè (from whom the quarter itself
takes its current name) in 1919. Coppedè worked on the quarter until his
death in 1927.
Thanks to its strange beauty, the Quartiere Coppedè has been used as the
setting for a number of films, and is a fun way to leave the beaten path
of Rome.
