Julius Caesar's Final Hours Tour from the Roman Forum

Highlights

Reiseverlauf

1. 1

   We will start our tour by the Roman Forum. This is where in the morning of March 15, 44BC Caesar woke up after a restless night. He had nightmares, the ceiling of his house collapsing over him. Calpurnia, his wife, had nightmares too. Perhaps she is unsettled by rumors that someone wants Caesar dead..

   As Caesar prepares for the day, Calpurnia begs him to stay home. She has a terrible feeling. Caesar begins to think she may be right. But then there is a knock at the door. It’s Brutus, he tells Caesar the senators are waiting for him, the agenda is full of important matters. Caesar looks at Brutus, one of the people he trusts most in his life, almost like a son. And he decides Brutus is right: he cannot miss the Senate that day. What he doesn’t know is that Brutus is also the organizer of the conspiracy and that the plan is already in motion. Ignoring Calpurnia’s worried gaze, Caesar steps outside and closes the door behind him. The last walk of Julius Caesar has just begun.

   Piazza Venezia

   We will walk through Piazza Venezia and learn about the Monument to Victor Emmanuel II. It was in this area that Caesar, on his way to the Senate and surrounded by the crowd, was given a written message with a warning about the conspiracy he was walking to. But Caesar put that message in his pocket, planning to read it later..
