The largest handmade model of Imperial Rome

Known as "Il Plastico", this 20 X 20 meter model of the imperial city (created by Italo Gismondi) offers a unique bird's eye view of the city. Featured in the film Gladiator, it shows off the city to its greatest extent, under Constantine. We'll take a close up exclusive look, region by region. The Museum della Civilta' Romana in E.U.R. that houses the model will reopen in 2025!

We thank the colleagues of Musei in Comune for the exceptional access to the site many years ago with our summer film students, before its closure for restoration. The new opening promises to be an exceptional opportunity to study Roman civilization, a short metro ride from central Rome!
