Itinerario

1. - Square before the bridge taking to the Castle, location of the most cruel executions of criminal in the eternal city - Like pilgrims on the way to Saint Peter's Basilica, inspired by the angels made by Bernini, walk along the bridge to the entrance

   10 min

2. - Main witness of the historical changes of Rome. Like a time machine, its loggias, rooms and galleries are freighted of the events the city has been through, like browsing a history book where each page has left a tangible mark on its walls. - Even if a castle, by definition, is a closed space of defense, almost detached from its context, this fortress shared the destiny of the city's heyday and decay so intrinsically. - A landmark expressing the control of the Church over the population, a bulwark against the attitude to crime - Feeling of almost entering a prison more than a monument with all that this entails in terms of reverence and fear. - Stories of prisoners with their hopes and despair and characters who made the history of the Castle like Emperors, Generals, Kings and Popes to finally provide a deep insight of the roman society through the centuries in a monument that still carries the burden of time and events.

About Roma

Roma superpone casi tres mil años de historia en una ciudad para recorrer a pie, del Coliseo y el Foro a las plazas barrocas y el arte del Vaticano.

La Roma antigua sigue a la vista. El Coliseo, el Foro Romano y el Palatino se alzan juntos en el corazón de la ciudad, el Panteón sigue en pie con su óculo abierto, y fragmentos de templos y acueductos asoman entre los bloques de viviendas. Al otro lado del Tíber, la Ciudad del Vaticano alberga la basílica de San Pedro, los Museos Vaticanos y el techo de la Capilla Sixtina pintado por Miguel Ángel.

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