Keats-Shelley Museum, Piazza di Spagna 26, Rome, Italy

The house is a museum and a memorial to the famed English poet, John Keats, who died here in Rome from tuberculosis at the age of 25. The room that once contained his death bed has been recreated and preserved as a shrine to the poet. The house is also a memorial to Percy Bysshe Shelley, a fellow poet who also had a connection with Rome. A library on-site contains more than 8,000 examples of Romantic literature.
