Description
Step inside Castel Sant'Angelo after the daytime visitors have left and discover one of Rome's most atmospheric monuments by night. Originally built as Emperor Hadrian's monumental mausoleum, the castle later became a military fortress, a papal residence, a prison, and today stands as one of Italy's most fascinating museums.
Using your digital audio guide, journey through nearly 2,000 years of history while exploring Hadrian's Mausoleum, the medieval defensive walls, the Renaissance Papal Apartments, the historic prison cells, the military courtyards, the legendary spiral ramp, and the magnificent Terrace of the Angel.
As darkness falls over Rome, enjoy panoramic views of St. Peter's Basilica, the Tiber River, Ponte Sant'Angelo, Vatican City, and Rome's illuminated skyline. The peaceful evening setting offers an unforgettable way to experience one of Rome's greatest landmarks.
