Your Experience

Gain access to Castel Sant'Angelo and ascend to its terrace for a one-hour visit, discovering one of the most beautiful views of Rome from the highest accessible point of the castle. The name Terrazza dell'Angelo is linked to the colossal statue of the Archangel Michael, commemorating Pope Gregory the Great's vision in 590 during the end of the plague in Rome.

The view opens almost 360 degrees over the historic centre of Rome, which lies at the foot of the castle, beyond the Tiber. The castle is faced by Sant'Angelo Bridge, one of the most scenic in Baroque Rome due to Bernini's sequence of ten statues of angels holding symbols of Christ's passion.

Moving your eyes from left to right, you'll recognise the gigantic bulk of the Palazzaccio (the Palaces of Justice), the greenery of Villa Borghese, Quirinale, Pantheon, Capitoline Hill, Aventine Hill and the Janiculum. Turning towards St. Peter's Basilica, you'll appreciate the Passetto di Borgo route, which connects Castel Sant'Angelo to the Vatican Palaces.

After this experience, you'll be free to visit the remaining levels of the castle in total autonomy. Duration: Lasts 1 hour.
