Route

    10 minToegang inbegrepen

  2. Upon entering the Basilica, proceed directly to this world-famous sculpture. Your guide will share the fascinating story of a 24-year-old Michelangelo, why this is the only work he ever signed, and the dramatic story of its damage and restoration in the 1970s.

    15 minToegang inbegrepen

  3. "The Baldacchino & Papal Altar" Stand beneath Bernini's towering bronze canopy, which marks the exact spot of St. Peter's tomb below. Learn the controversial story of how bronze was stripped from the Pantheon to create this masterpiece and understand its significance in Catholic tradition.

  4. "The Statue of St. Peter" Visit the beloved bronze statue of St. Peter, seated with the keys to the kingdom. Your guide will explain the ancient pilgrim tradition of touching the statue's foot for blessing—a practice that has worn the bronze smooth over centuries of devotion.

About Rome

Rome legt bijna drieduizend jaar geschiedenis in één stad die je te voet beleeft, van Colosseum en Forum tot barokke pleinen en Vaticaanse kunst.

Het oude Rome ligt nog altijd open en bloot. Het Colosseum, het Forum Romanum en de Palatijn staan samen in het hart van de stad, het Pantheon prijkt nog steeds met zijn open oculus en tussen de woonblokken duiken brokstukken van tempels en aquaducten op. Aan de overkant van de Tiber herbergt Vaticaanstad de Sint-Pietersbasiliek, de Vaticaanse Musea en het plafond van Michelangelo's Sixtijnse Kapel.

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