A historic palace once home to Pope John Paul II has gone on the market for around £25m.
The sprawling property sits in the heart of Rome, close to major landmarks including the Trevi Fountain.
Dating back to the early 1600s, the grand building spans more than 32,000 square feet.

It was once used as a religious institution and later became the headquarters of a Catholic college.
Between 1946 and 1948, Karol Wojtyła – who would later become Pope John Paul II – lived and studied at the property.
The future pontiff went on to lead the Catholic Church from 1978 until his death in 2005, becoming one of the longest-serving popes in history.
The palace boasts around 40 bedrooms and even includes its own deconsecrated church within the structure.
Inside, it features ornate architectural details such as gilded columns, frescoes and stained-glass windows.
Parts of the building have more recently been used as office space.
However, agents say it could be transformed into a luxury private residence.
They describe it as a rare opportunity to own a historic property in one of Rome’s most sought-after locations.
The property is currently listed with Lionard Luxury Real Estate.
