The Quartiere Coppedè is a small section of Rome whose architecture was created by Gino Coppedè. The structures were built between 1915 and 1927. This page captures some of the highlights we visited.

Entrance Arch

The entrance arch welcomes you to the area with a glimpse of what awaits you within the quarter.

Fairy House and Fountain of the Frog

Located in Piazza Mincio, the casina delle fate (fairy house) and fontana delle rane (fountain of the frog) are great examples of the charming architecture.

Spider Building

Also in Piazza Mincio, the palazzo del ragno (spider building) sports some interesting architecture.

Art Decco Building

Finally, there's an art decco building in Palazza Muncio whose overall architecture is somewhat similar (roof overhangs, columns on balconies, etc.) to the spider building. It doesn't really show up as an attraction, although it does find it's way into photos. We thought it interesting.

Other stuff

Many of the buildings now serve as administrative offices or apartments rather than homes. Here are a few.

Fun time! It's a short walk with a lot to explore. If you have some extra time in Rome, it's a nice break from the often crowded main attractions.
