The House of Augustus, or the Domus Augusti (not to be confused with the Domus Augustana), is situated on the Palatine Hill in Rome, Italy. This house has been identified as the primary place of residence for the emperor Augustus (r. 27 BC – AD 14).[1]

The Domus Augusti is located near the so-called Hut of Romulus and other sites that have connections to the foundation of Rome.
