What To Expect

Basilica Papale San Paolo Fuori le Mura

The Basilica of Saint Paul Outside the Walls is one of the four major papal basilicas in Rome and a significant pilgrimage site. Situated just outside the ancient Roman city walls, it stands as the burial place of Saint Paul, one of the most influential apostles in Christianity. Originally built by Emperor Constantine in the 4th century, the basilica was reconstructed after a devastating fire in the 19th century, which has left it with a blend of ancient and neo-classical architectural elements.
