Why Visit Vatican City?

Vatican City is the world’s smallest sovereign state, and it holds an unmatched concentration of art within its walls. Michelangelo’s Sistine Chapel ceiling and St Peter’s Basilica dome define Renaissance ambition, the Vatican Museums run for kilometres of galleries, and Bernini’s colonnade embraces the square below. The papal audience and archives complete a singular destination.
