Private Walking tour in Castel Sant'Angelo with Pickup

Let us take you to the castle, main witness of Rome's historical changes. Its loggias, rooms and galleries are freighted of the events the city has been through, like browsing a history book where each page has left a tangible mark on its walls. Explore a landmark expressing the control of the Church over the population, a bulwark against the attitude to crime, a closed space of defense, almost detached from its context but sharing the destiny of the city with its heydays and decays so intrinsically. Learn about prisoners with their hopes and despair and characters who made the story of the Castle like Emperors, Generals, Kings and Popes. Enjoy the castle and its various uses through the centuries: Mausoleum, Fortress, Prison, Papal Apartment and National Museum! Learn about intrigues and conspiracies narrated by our engaging tour guides, all Phd archaeologist or historians of art. Marvel at the stunning panoramic view from its terrace.
