About this spot
In the ancient ruins of Largo di Torre Argentina, a no-kill cat sanctuary cares for hundreds of rescued cats. Run by volunteers, it welcomes visitors throughout the year.
How to get there
Largo di Torre Argentina sits in central Rome, a short walk from the Pantheon and Piazza Navona. Many visitors arrive on foot while exploring the historic center.
Several bus lines stop at Torre Argentina. The nearest Metro station is Colosseo (Line B), about a 10–15 minute walk away.
The sanctuary has set visiting hours and may close on certain days. Check the official website before your visit if you plan to enter the shelter area.
