The Keats-Shelley Museum is located in the heart of the historical centre of Rome, in an 18th century building in Piazza di Spagna, to the right of the Trinità dei Monti staircase. The location, particularly loved and remembered by British artists, poets and musicians, was the last residence of the poet John Keats, who lived in the building for a few months and died there in February 1821. In 1903, a group of American, British and Italian students and scholars founded the Keats-Shelley Memorial Association that bought the building in 1906 as a home for the works of the romantic poets Keats, Shelley and Byron.
