Embark on a historical journey to 138 AD as you step into the Castel, initially built as a burial monument for Emperor Hadrian. Delve into the mausoleum committed to him. Unearth the Treasury room located deep within the castle walls where it is speculated his ashes rested until Rome was looted in the 5th century.
As you navigate through the castle, pay a visit to the galleried Papal apartments. Gain insights into the lives of the reigning popes and cardinals who sought refuge here during turbulent times, including the notorious Borgia.
Experience a chilling moment within a torture chamber, sited at the courtyard where countless executions were staged, and explore the renowned ‘Passeto Secreto’ - the ‘clandestine passageway’ that links the castle to the Vatican, which fueled the narrative of Dan Brown’s Angels and Demons.
Lastly, indulge in breathtaking views of Rome from the peak of the monument, under the watchful eye of the sword-bearing Archangel Michael, the city’s guardian.
