Lupa Capitolina, displayed in the Capitoline Museums on the Capitoline Hill, depicts the mythic She-Wolf nursing Romulus and Remus, founders of Rome. Believed to date to ancient Etruscan times (though often debated), this bronze sculpture represents the city’s legendary origins. It can be found near the Palazzo dei Conservatori, where travelers can view it along with many classical and Renaissance artworks. The piece has become a powerful emblem of Roman identity, symbolizing resilience, unity, and the city’s storied past. While exploring the Capitoline Hill, take in the Michelangelo-designed square, stunning city views, and nearby historical landmarks, all within easy walking distance.
