Høydepunkter

Rome's beauty hides a darker history of trials, prisons, and public executions. This self-guided walking tour follows a route from Campo de' Fiori to Castel Sant'Angelo, revealing how the city's streets once staged punishment, devotion, and fear. Highlights include: * Uncover Giordano Bruno's execution in Campo de' Fiori * Follow the tragic story of Beatrice Cenci * Walk streets tied to prisons, judgement, and papal power * Learn how confraternities cared for the forgotten dead * Cross Ponte Sant'Angelo, where mercy and violence met * End near Castel Sant'Angelo, Rome's fortress-prison More than tales of death, this 75-minute tour reveals a Rome of faith, resistance, and memory - where beauty and brutality stood only steps apart.

About Roma

Roma pakker nesten tre tusen år med historie inn i én by du kan gå rundt i, fra Colosseum og Forum til barokke plasser og Vatikanets kunst.

Det antikke Roma er fortsatt synlig overalt. Colosseum, Forum Romanum og Palatinhøyden ligger sammen i hjertet av byen, Pantheon står ennå med sin åpne oculus, og rester av templer og akvedukter dukker opp mellom leilighetsbygningene. På den andre siden av Tiberen rommer Vatikanstaten Peterskirken, Vatikanmuseene og Michelangelos tak i Det sixtinske kapell.

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