Vatican Museums & Sistine Chapel

The experience

One of the world's great museum complexes, holding the papal collections amassed over five centuries across galleries, courtyards and decorated halls. The route leads past classical sculpture, the Raphael Rooms and the Gallery of Maps to the Sistine Chapel, whose ceiling and Last Judgment were painted by Michelangelo. The collection is vast and consistently crowded.

To see Michelangelo's Sistine ceiling and centuries of papal masterpieces gathered under one roof.
