At the foot of the Spanish Steps begins the Via Condotti - it is named after the canal or canals that carried water to the Baths of Agrippa.

Today it is a street with the most exquisite shops and the famous Caffe Greco - perhaps the most famous coffee house in Rome, founded in 1760 (it is the oldest coffee house in Rome and the second oldest in Italy, after Caffe Florian in Venice). Famous people used to appear here: Stendhal, Goethe, Byron, Liszt and Keats to drink coffee. In Via dei Condotti 11, until his death in 1937, lived the inventor of the radio Guglielmo Marconi.
