NOTES: The Palazzo Nuovo, which houses part of the Capitoline Museum, was built 1603-1655 by Girolamo Rainaldo and his son Carlo to Michelangel's design of 1536. It is a mirror-image of the Palazzo dei Conservatori on the opposite side of the square built 1564-1575 by Gicacomo della Porta, also to Michelangelo's design.
