Castel Sant'Angelo: Entrance + Audioguide

The Castel Sant'Angelo, located on the banks of the Tiber, is a fortress with almost two thousand years of history. Initially built as the mausoleum of Emperor Hadrian, it was transformed into a castle, prison and papal refuge over the centuries. This change of functions makes it a building full of historical layers and surprising spaces. Its interior includes papal rooms decorated with Renaissance frescoes, secret passages - such as the famous Passetto di Borgo that connects to the Vatican - and terraces that offer one of the best panoramic views of Rome. The mix of military architecture, art and legends makes the visit a particularly evocative experience. Sant'Angelo is one of the city's most unique monuments and an ideal place to discover how Rome has transformed its buildings over time.
