• Vatican Museums - Established by Pope Julius II in the early 16th century and expanded by subsequent popes, the Vatican Museums house one of the world’s most impressive art collections. The exhibits, which span approximately 7km of galleries and corridors, include Egyptian mummies, Etruscan bronzes, ancient busts, old masters, and modern paintings. Notable highlights are the stunning collection of classical statues in the Museo Pio-Clementino, a series of rooms adorned with Raphael’s frescoes, and the Sistine Chapel, painted by Michelangelo.
• Sistine Chapel - Featuring two of the world’s most renowned artworks – Michelangelo’s ceiling frescoes and his “Giudizio Universale” (Last Judgment) – the Sistine Chapel is the must-see part of the Vatican Museums, often shared with up to 2000 visitors on busy days. Michelangelo’s ceiling masterpiece, best appreciated from the chapel’s main entrance on the far east wall, spans the entire 800-square-meter surface.
