1. The official headquarters of the Pope. The famous church is topped with impressive statues along the outer face and full of beauty inside. The main walls are covered in beautiful frescos from the Renaissance age and the main nave, restored four centuries ago, will leave you in awe! It is one of the oldest churches of Rome, but the Basilica of San Giovanni in Laterano is something more: a real artistic jewel.

   45 Min.

2. The Basilica of Saint Paul outside the Walls testifies the history of the Holy Church in Rome. The main altar, surmounted by a stunning Gothic canopy, treasures the mortal remains of St Paul, who was buried here. The giant basilica was built as early as the V century AD and features original Roman columns, a great mosaic from the Middle Age, but also the portraits of all the Popes in history, including the last ones: Pope Francis and Pope Benedict XVI.

   45 Min.

3. One of only 4 Major Basilicas of Rome and the largest dedicated to Saint Mary was built between 422-432 under the instruction of Pope Celestine the first. The mesmerizing mosaics covering the triumphal arch and nave gave a model for future representations of the Virgin Mary.

   45 Min.

About Rom

Rom schichtet fast dreitausend Jahre Geschichte in einer Stadt der kurzen Wege, vom Kolosseum und Forum bis zu Barockplätzen und Vatikankunst.

Das antike Rom liegt noch immer offen vor einem. Kolosseum, Forum Romanum und Palatin liegen gemeinsam im Herzen der Stadt, das Pantheon steht mit seinem offenen Opaion noch heute, und Reste von Tempeln und Aquädukten tauchen zwischen Wohnhäusern auf. Jenseits des Tibers birgt die Vatikanstadt den Petersdom, die Vatikanischen Museen und Michelangelos Deckenfresko in der Sixtinischen Kapelle.

Top-ranked sights in Rom: Colosseum, Vatican Museums, Sistine Chapel.
