Salviati Palace (Roma) is a Renaissance building whose construction began in 1520 on the initiative of Filippo Adimari, an illustrious and cultured Florentine prelate, based on a project by Giulio Romano.
It was completed in 1568 by Nanni di Baccio Bigio on behalf of the then owner, Cardinal Giovanni Salviati.
With the expropriation by the Italian state in 1870, the military court and the military college were housed here. In 1933 a new wing was added to close the courtyard. A shrine preserves the memory of the suppressed high school-military institute today.
During the Second World War, during the period of the occupation, the more than a thousand Jews captured in the raid in the ghetto of Rome were locked up for a few days (from 16 to 18 October 1943) in the rooms of the military college until deportation.

The building is now the seat of the Higher Defense Studies Institute and has an important library specialized in military and geo-political-strategic disciplines in general.
