📰 Palazzo Muti

The Palazzo Muti is a large townhouse in the Piazza dei Santi Apostoli, Rome, Italy, built in 1644. Together with the neighboring Palazzo Muti Papazzurri, it originally formed part of a complex of adjoining palazzi and other houses owned by the Muti Papazzurri family. During the 18th century this entire range of buildings was, by courtesy of the pope, the residence of the House of Stuart government in exile in Rome. They were recognised by the Catholic Church and the Jacobite movement as the rightful kings of Great Britain and Ireland. The Palazzo Muti should not be confused with the Palazzo Muti Papazzurri in the Piazzo della Pilotta which was designed by Mattia de' Rossi in 1660.
