Discover the dark secrets and golden splendors of Rome’s most versatile monument. From its origins as a Roman Emperor's final resting place to its days as a fortified hideout for the Papacy, Castel Sant’Angelo tells the story of Rome itself.
Walk the same halls where the goldsmith Benvenuto Cellini was imprisoned and see where the mysterious Cagliostro was held captive. With your skip-the-line ticket, you’ll bypass the queues and dive straight into history. Marvel at the intricate frescoes of the Papal Rooms and stand exactly where the "Angel of Death" is said to have appeared. Don't forget your camera—the 360-degree view from the top is widely considered the best photo spot in the city.

You will be able to admire Castle St. Angelo with ticket included. Your visit begins by walking up the Helical Ramp, a massive, ancient spiral corridor built for Emperor Hadrian's funeral procession. The crowning jewel of the visit is the Terrazza dell’Angelo (Angel Terrace). Standing beneath the iconic bronze statue of the Archangel Michael, you will enjoy one of the most spectacular 360° views of Rome. From here, you can see the curve of the Tiber River, the massive dome of St. Peter’s Basilica, and the sprawling terracotta rooftops of the Eternal City.
