What to expect

The Vatican Museums are a must-visit for art lovers and history enthusiasts. Located in Vatican City, the Museums boast an incredible collection of art, antiquities, and historical artifacts accumulated by the Popes over centuries.

Founded in the 16th century by Pope Julius II, the Museums include famous galleries like the Sistine Chapel, the Raphael Rooms, and the Gallery of Maps. The collection spans over 3,000 years of history, with masterpieces by Michelangelo, Raphael, Leonardo da Vinci, Caravaggio, and many more.

A visit to the Vatican Museums offers an immersive experience into Western civilization, the Catholic Church, and art history. Explore the sculptures in the Pio Clementino Museum, the tapestries in the Gallery of Tapestries, or the frescoes of the Sistine Chapel.

Your ticket grants access also to the iconic Pantheon and includes a video of Rome's iconic places during Roman Empire, viewable daily at the tour operator office in Piazza d'Ara Coeli.
