Sistine Chapel
Rather than the architecture of the church, visitors to the Sistine Chapel are mostly drawn to the murals that cover the whole ceiling and walls. The Holy College of Cardinals uses the pope's private chapel, the Sistine Chapel, to select a new pope when a post becomes available. It also serves as the location of the pope's most important rites. When the chapel isn't in use, though, it is closed for practical reasons, and people come from all over the world to see the incredible artworks hidden inside.
