What To Expect

San Pietro in Vincoli

The Basilica di San Pietro in Vincoli, built in the 5th century, was specifically constructed to enshrine the chains that are believed to have held Saint Peter during his imprisonment in Jerusalem. This significant church, located in Rome, is renowned for its historical and religious importance, as well as for housing Michelangelo's masterpiece, the statue of Moses. The basilica symbolizes both the early Christian heritage of the city and the enduring legacy of art and architecture that continues to draw visitors from around the world.

Basilica di Santa Maria Maggiore

The Basilica Santa Maria Maggiore is the largest church dedicated to the Virgin Mary in Rome and one of the city's four papal basilicas. According to tradition, it was built on the site where Pope Liberius dreamed of the Virgin Mary, who instructed him to construct a church in her honor. The story goes that on August 5th, in the sweltering summer heat, a miraculous snowfall marked the location for the basilica, leading to the annual celebration where white flower petals are dropped from the ceiling to commemorate this event. The basilica's stunning architecture and rich history make it a must-visit landmark for those exploring Rome.

Basilica of Santa Pudenziana

The Basilica of Santa Pudenziana, a 4th-century church in Rome, is dedicated to Saint Pudentiana, who is traditionally recognized as the sister of Saint Praxedis and the daughter of Saint Pudens. However, some scholars suggest that Pudentiana may not have been a historical figure but rather an epithet derived from the Domus Pudentiana, the house of Pudens. This ancient church is noted for its beautiful mosaics and its significance in early Christian history, representing the integration of faith and Roman culture during its time.
