The Palatine Hill is the most central of the seven hills of Rome and is one of the oldest areas of the city. It stands 50 meters above the Roman Forum, overlooking the Circus Maximus on one side and the other. It is the etymological origin of the word palazzo and its surnames in other languages (Italian palazzo, French palais, German Palast, etc.).

In 1878 the Italian Parliament decided to dedicate a national monument to the recently deceased sovereign Vittorio Emanuele II.
After two international competitions (1880 and 1882), the project presented by Giuseppe Sacconi was chosen. The young architect from the Marche region, following the model of the great sanctuaries of the classical era, had conceived the space as a scenic representation celebrating the Italian Risorgimento in the center of imperial Rome.

The architectural structure of the monument was developed as an ideal ascending path that, through the stairs and terraces, enriched by the various sculptural groups and bas-reliefs of the central Altar of the Homeland, would rise to the side temples and from these to the grandiose crowned columned portico. by bronze chariots, allegories of the Unity of the Homeland and Freedom.

Castel Sant'Angelo is a monument of Rome located on the right bank of the Tiber in front of the homonymous bridge. The origins of Castel Sant'Angelo date back to 135 AD, when the emperor Hadrian commissioned the architect Demetriano to build a funeral mausoleum for himself and his family. In the following centuries up to the present day, the castle lost its function as a sepulcher and was subject to radical changes which gave it its current appearance. Today Castel Sant'Angelo is state property of the Italian State and is connected to the Vatican State through the fortified corridor of the "passetto".

St. Peter's Square

Highlight • Monument

St. Peter's Square is among the most famous squares in the world. It is a symbol not only of spirituality but also of culture, being among the greatest architectural works of the Western world. To understand its magnificence you have to look at it from above and you can do this by climbing inside the Dome of St. Peter. Inside the Basilica there are signs leading to the ticket office to go up to the Dome (the Basilica can be visited for free). The view you can admire from those 140 meters is unique and worth every penny paid!
