GUIDED TOUR

The guided tour of St. Peter's Basilica offers visitors the opportunity to enter the living heart of Christianity, where art, faith and history have been intertwined for centuries. Accompanied by a tour guide, visitors are introduced to the history of the Basilica and its most renown points: among these, the famous Pietà by Michelangelo, a masterpiece of extraordinary delicacy and spiritual depth, and the majestic Baldachin by Bernini, which with its twisted columns guards the papal altar and signals the presence of Saint Peter’s Tomb.

The route continues through chapels full of symbols, monuments dedicated to saints and pontiffs, and the magnificent Michelangelo Dome that lifts the gaze towards the sky. Each element helps to understand how this place was born and developed around the testimony of the Apostle Peter.

At the middle of the route is the memory of his Tomb, the point of origin of the Basilica and the life of the Roman Church. Here, in a climate of silence and prayer, one perceives the endurance of a faith that spans over the centuries and continues to gather pilgrims from all over the world.

The visit becomes an opportunity to read the history, art and spirituality of the Church through the beauty of one of its most precious places.
