More information

Located in the holy city within the Italian capital are the history-laden Vatican Museums. Said to contain the world's largest collection of art, the Vatican Museums are a must-visit for any trip to Rome!

Why should you visit the Vatican Museums?

The Vatican Museums house some of the world's most beautiful and culturally significant art. Among the countless masterpieces to be found are the iconic ceiling of the Sistine Chapel painted by Michelangelo, as well as Raphael's The School of Athens.

Did you know...

The Vatican Museum's origins can be traced back to a singular marble sculpture which was purchased and put on display by Pope Julius in 1506—meaning that the origins of the museum go back over 500 years.

Before you visit

We recommend buying a skip-the-queue ticket with Civitatis in advance of your visit to the Vatican Museum to avoid the notoriously long queues. The main entrance to the museums is from St. Peter's Square, which you can get to on Metro line A!
