What to expect

Explore Castel Sant'Angelo on this guided tour in English. Learn the rich history of this monument, initially built as the tomb of the Roman emperor Hadrian in 135 AD, admire the monument’s paintings and statues and uncover its mysteries.

An expert and local guide will tell you the story of this mausoleum later converted into a military fortress that protected Rome during the Middle Ages. Castel Sant'Angelo has served as a papal residence, a prison during the Renaissance era, and now, as one of Rome's museums. In addition to serving as a repository of historical information, it is a site of immense culture, architecture, frescoes, and more.

Discover the mysterious monument on the Tiber, and see paintings, ancient fortified walls, and statues that adorn the castle.
