Castel Sant'Angelo National Museum
Discover the Legendary Castel Sant'Angelo, a ancient fortress in Rome's Parco Adriano has a rich history spanning over 1,800 years. Originally built as Emperor Hadrian's mausoleum (135-139 AD), it was later transformed into a papal stronghold, prison, and even a residence for popes. Explore the imposing structure, featuring stunning Renaissance frescoes, ancient artifacts, and a vast collection of medieval and Renaissance-era weapons. Walk in the footsteps of famous prisoners, including Benvenuto Cellini, and marvel at the beautifully painted papal baths of Leo X and Clemente VII. Take in breathtaking views of Rome from the castle's iconic terrace, where the city unfolds like a canvas.
