About this experience
Rome's beauty hides a darker history of trials, prisons, and public executions. This self-guided walking tour follows a route from Campo de' Fiori to Castel Sant'Angelo, revealing how the city's streets once staged punishment, devotion, and fear.
Highlights include:
* Uncover Giordano Bruno's execution in Campo de' Fiori
* Follow the tragic story of Beatrice Cenci
* Walk streets tied to prisons, judgement, and papal power
* Learn how confraternities cared for the forgotten dead
* Cross Ponte Sant'Angelo, where mercy and violence met
* End near Castel Sant'Angelo, Rome's fortress-prison
More than tales of death, this 75-minute tour reveals a Rome of faith, resistance, and memory - where beauty and brutality stood only steps apart.
