It is, in essence, St. Peter’s Square, the homonymous basilica, the gardens, and the palaces, scattered on the slopes of the hill. The whole is surrounded by walls that can be occupied by five access points: the most important, which is located between Bernini’s colonnade and the Palazzo del S. Uffizio, towards the Audience Hall built by Pier Luigi Nervi under Paul YOU; the Bronze Door, which is the entrance to the building; the Arco delle Campane, located to the left of the facade of the basilica; the Porta S. Anna, which overlooks the services; and the entrance to the Museums. Private Vatican Tours | The square is freely accessible, except during the sessions with the ciliars and the official visits of the heads of State; the police service is entrusted by mutual agreement, for security reasons, to the Italian State. Rome Private Tours!

Sistine Chapel – Private Vatican Tours THE WONDERFUL FRESCOES painted by the best painters of the 15th century (Perugino, Botticelli, Rosselli, Signorelli, Ghirlandaio, Piero di Cosimo) tell the life of Moses on the right wall and the life of Jesus on the left. At the behest of Julius II, Michelangelo painted the frescoes on the vault, representing the universe’s creation and the history of humanity up to Noah; furthermore, by order of Paul III, he painted the Last Judgment (1535-1541). Private Vatican Tours | These splendid frescoes attract more and more large crowds. We can admire the 390 characters, including many over two meters in height, arranged on an area of more than 200 m².In the Last Judgment, the Dies Irae of the last period of the Renaissance, in the center, emerges, among the damned and the elect, the image of Christ, the judge. The chapel’s vault has been the subject of a wise and faithful restoration, which has restored the original splendor of Michelangelo’s colors.
