What To Expect

Vatican Museums

Among the many remarkable Vatican Museums is the Museum of Vatican History. When the Historical Museum was first established in 1973 by Pope Paul, its collection was housed beneath a square garden. It wasn't until 1987 that it was relocated to the Lateran Apostolic Palace's main floor, and in March 1991 it was once more made public.Julius, the pope at the time, opened the Vatican City Museums in 1503. The collection of artworks at the museum expanded from wealthy families' private to public holdings, including those of the future pope and other popes. The Vatican Museum of History was created as a result of the Vatican Museums expanding due to the large diversity of collections requiring more structures to store the artwork.

Sistine Chapel

When guests visit the Sistine Chapel, their eyes are drawn to the murals that span the entire ceiling and walls, rather than the building's design.The pope's personal chapel, the Sistine Chapel, serves as the venue for the pope's most significant rituals and is utilised by the Holy College of Cardinals to choose a new pope when a position opens up. For practical reasons, however, the chapel is closed when it is not in use, and visitors from all over the world swarm there in anticipation of seeing the amazing artworks concealed within.
