What To Expect

Basilica di Santa Maria Maggiore

The Papal Basilica of Santa Maria Maggiore has stood on Rome’s Esquiline Hill for sixteen centuries. A major Marian shrine and cradle of art, it’s one of the city’s four Papal Basilicas. Tradition says the Virgin Mary inspired its location. Inside, art and faith merge: admire the Bernini family tomb, the Baptistery, the Holy Door, and more. Pope Francis entrusts his travels to the icon of Salus Populi Romani, praying here before and after each journey. On a guided tour, explore the archaeological area beneath the Basilica—Imperial-era halls, mosaics, frescoes, ancient tiles, and a rare agricultural calendar painting reveal a hidden past.
