Disarmonia e asimmetrica, piazza Margana si fa ammirare da quei pochi viandanti che l'attraversano per raggiungere o piazza Venezia o il ghetto o la Via del mare e hanno l'ardire di spostarvi per più di qualche minuto per respirare l'aura medioevale.
Sì perché il luogo e gli spazi che la compongono conservano il tratto caratteristico dei secoli in cui la vita scorreva lentamente tra il vociare delle genti e il gran daffare dei primi mercanti.
Il caseggiato dei Margani con la torre inglobata, un portale arricchito con uno splendido fregio, dei frammenti marmorei raffiguranti un aquila e un motivo floreale, una colonna con capitello ionico incassato nella facciata, attira lo sguardo di chiunque abbia la curiosità di osservare oltre il guardare ed il vedere ed offre ai viandanti la meraviglia della conservazione di un mondo ormai trascorso.
È ora di lasciare la piazza alla solitudine che la contraddistingue non prima di aver ammirato gli altri palazzi che la chiudono nella perfezione architettonica.

Disharmonious and asymmetrical, Piazza Margana is admired by those few travelers who cross it to reach either Piazza Venezia or the ghetto or the Via del Mare and have the courage to move there for more than a few minutes to breathe in the medieval aura.
Yes, because the place and the spaces that compose it retain the characteristic features of the centuries in which life flowed slowly between the chatter of the people and the great bustle of the first merchants.
The Margani building with the incorporated tower, a portal enriched with a splendid frieze, marble fragments depicting an eagle and a floral motif, a column with an Ionic capital embedded in the façade, attracts the gaze of anyone with the curiosity to observe beyond looking and seeing and offers travelers the wonder of the conservation of a world now gone by.
It's time to leave the square to the solitude that distinguishes it, but not before admiring the other buildings that enclose it in architectural perfection.

Una delle poche piazze a conservare l'aspetto di oltre un secolo fa. Il palazzo con l'omonima torre che troneggia è solo uno dei tanti che si affacciano in questo posto molto raccolto e non di passaggio. È il soggetto di un noto pittore straniero che si innamorò di questi vicoli. Un pannello invita i visitatori a rispettare il luogo anche se la movida che lo caratterizza difficilmente lo rende ascoltato. Bella la passeggiata verso il lungotevere.

One of the few squares to retain the appearance of over a century ago. The building with the tower of the same name that dominates is just one of the many that overlook this very intimate and non-passing place. It is the subject of a well-known foreign painter who fell in love with these alleys. A panel invites visitors to respect the place even if the nightlife that characterizes it hardly makes them listen to it. The walk towards the Tiber is beautiful.

Piazza Margana (Rione X – Campitelli) è una delle perle del centro storico di Roma, dove sembra che il tempo si sia fermato, infatti tutti i palazzi che vi si affacciano sono “datati”, dando l'idea di essere tornati indietro nel tempo.

La impreziosisce l’edificio dei Margani (che fa da quinta di scena), con alla destra l’omonima e suggestiva torre (mozza) in laterizio è del XIV secolo, con aggiunte nei secoli successivi, attualmente sono visibili tre piani, sono altresì presenti vari pregevoli frammenti architettonici romani (ad esempio uno raffigura un’aquila) e soprattutto un troncone di una antica colonna, con relativo capitello.

Ecco gli altri edifici presenti:

1)	Al n. 19 il palazzo Maccarani Odescalchi del XVI secolo, inizialmente di proprietà della famiglia dei Maccarani e poi acquistato dagli Odescalchi. Dato il recente restauro, l’edificio appare maestoso e molto bello.

2)	Al n. 24 il Palazzetto Velli Cardelli del XV secolo, di tre piani, inizialmente di proprietà della famiglia Velli e successivamente fu acquistato dai Cardelli, il portale è bugnato si presenta abbastanza semplice e ha alcune finestre murate.

3)	Al n. 32 il Palazzetto Capocci del XV secolo, dell’omonima nobile famiglia di origine viterbese.

4)	Al n. 34-36 il Palazzetto Albertoni del XVI secolo che fu di proprietà della nobile famiglia romana, costruito su un precedente palazzo del XV secolo, con un bel portale bugnato al n. 34 sovrastato da una finestra con inferriate dove al di sopra si trova lo stemma degli Albertoni.

5)	Al n. 37 un piccolo Palazzetto, dove è presente una pregevole edicola sacra ed una targa dove è scritto quanto segue:

MINISTERO DELLA PUBBLICA ISTRUZIONE
L’OSTERIA ANGELINO A TORMARGANA
È DICHIARATA DI INTERESSE
PARTICOLARMENTE IMPORTANTE
AI SENSI DELLA LEGGE
I° GIUGNO 1939 N° 1089
DECRETO 26 MAGGIO 1954

6)	Nella Piazza sono presenti vari locali, fra i quali appunto l’Antica Osteria Angelino.

O cazare care lasă mult de dorit. Am avut cazare trei nopți și am stat doar două. Asta pentru ca nu am găsit altceva decât în ultima noapte. Fără căldură, fără o aerisire, fără un geam cât de mic, fără apa calda și un pat extrem de incomod totul comdimentat cu un zgomot infernal de la un motor ce era chiar în dreptul patului și miros de mucegai. O grota efectiv! Singurul lucru bun este locul unde este amplasata aceasta camera. Scorul mare pe care îl avea aceasta locație este incorect. Raportul calitate preț este incorect.

An accommodation that leaves a lot to be desired. We had a three night stay and only stayed two. That's because I didn't find anything but the last night. No heat, no ventilation, no small window, no hot water and an extremely uncomfortable bed, all accompanied by an infernal noise from an engine that was right next to the bed and the smell of mold. A real grotto! The only good thing is where this room is located. The high score this location had is incorrect. The quality-price ratio is incorrect.
