The construction of the building was between 1473 and 1481 during the mandate of Pope Sixtus IV, to whom it owes its current name. What grabs the attention in the Sistine are the frescoes that completely cover the walls and the ceiling. Some of the most important artists who worked in the chapel are Botticelli, Perugino, Luca and Michelangelo. It is located in the central part of the vault and represents the story from Genesis in which God gives life to Adam. Located over the high altar Michelangelo's other masterpiece, The Final Judgment.
