Discover the history of this mausoleum-turned-museum with skip-the-line hosted access. Located on the right bank of the River Tiber only a short distance from the Vatican City, Castel Sant'Angelo is an ancient fortress with centuries of history built in 135 AD for the Roman Emperor Hadrian.
Explore the museum's seven floors to discover an extensive collection of ancient artifacts and perfectly preserved frescoes from the Renaissance period. Admire the collection of ancient weapons and armor. Look at the guns inside the fortified walls. Start your trip into centuries of history: from Hadrian's Tomb, a mausoleum for himself and his family, to a military building.
Climb the spiral staircase to reach the Chamber of Ashes where a number of historical figures were incarcerated, before continuing up to visit the Papal Residence. Immerse yourself in the stories of each different room as you admire the art within.
Finish your experience with a panoramic view from the castle terrace and take photos of the city.
