In this episode, we explore how Mussolini’s vision of a “Third Rome” reshaped the Eternal City during the fascist era. From grand avenues like Via dei Fori Imperiali to the EUR district, Mussolini used architecture to tie ancient Roman glory to modern fascist power. We examine his projects, including demolitions and the uneasy relationship with the Vatican, and consider the ideological and cultural impacts of these transformations. Discover how Rome became a stage for competing visions of history, modernity, and identity, leaving traces still visible today.
