Rioni of Rome - Today

Even after Napoleon lost his power, there were no sensible changes in the organization of the city, until Rome became the capital of the new born Italy. All the immigrants coming and the need of new buildings any capital needs caused a great urbanization and an increase of the population, both within the Aurelian walls and outside them. In 1874 the rioni became 15 adding Esquilino, obtained taking a part from Monti. At the beginning of the XX century some rioni started being split up and the first parts outside the Aurelian walls started being considered part of the city.

In 1921, because of the increase of the population after Rome had become capital of Italy, the number of the rioni increased to 22. Prati was the last rione to be established and it the only one outside the Aurelian walls.

The latest reform, that is still valid, was made in 1972: Rome was divided in Municipi and all the 22 rioni (thus the historical center) were placed in the first one, Municipio I.

The complete list of the modern rioni, in order of number, is the following:

Monti
Trevi
Colonna
Campo Marzio
Ponte
Parione
Regola
Sant'Eustachio
Pigna
Campitelli
Sant'Angelo
Ripa
Trastevere
Borgo
Esquilino
Ludovisi
Sallustiano
Castro Pretorio
Celio
Testaccio
San Saba
Prati
