Trinità dei Monti is situated on the Piazza della Trinità dei Monti at the highest point of the Spanish steps in middle of Rome and is open Tuesday to Sunday from 8am-8pm. For most visitors the most striking picture of the church is from piazza beneath, gazing upward absurd della Barcaccia and the Spanish steps. Climbing the 135 steps to the church entrance (there's also a lift running from the Spagna metro station) is also fulfilling, offering a closer perspective on the Renaissance façade, crafted by planner Giacomo della Porta. Inside the church, highlights incorporate a series of superb frescoes by Daniele da Volterra, Federico Zuccari and Giambattista Naldini. Standing pleased at the highest point of Rome's famous Spanish Steps, the historic Trinità dei Monti is one of the city's most captured churches and dates back to 1585. Worked under request of King Louis XII of France, the milestone church remains the property of the French government, an inheritance indicated by the pair of clocks that decorate its façade – one showing Rome time, the other Paris time.
