Your ticket includes access to the Sistine Chapel, home to Michelangelo's famous ceiling frescoes.
The Sistine Chapel
The Sistine Chapel is the highlight of any Vatican visit. Michelangelo painted the ceiling between 1508 and 1512, commissioned by Pope Julius II. The ceiling contains nine scenes from the Book of Genesis, including The Creation of Adam. Michelangelo returned between 1536 and 1541 to paint The Last Judgment on the altar wall, a 13.7 by 12 metre fresco depicting the Second Coming of Christ. The chapel is at the end of the museum route.
The Raphael Rooms
The Raphael Rooms are four interconnected rooms painted by Raphael and his workshop between 1509 and 1524. The Room of the Segnatura contains The School of Athens, depicting ancient philosophers including Plato and Aristotle. These rooms served as the private apartments of Pope Julius II.
Gallery of Maps
The Gallery of Maps is a 120-metre corridor displaying 40 topographical maps of Italian regions painted between 1580 and 1583. The maps were commissioned by Pope Gregory XIII and painted by Ignazio Danti. The ceiling features gilded stucco decorations and painted scenes.
Sculpture Collections
The Museo Pio-Clementino houses the Vatican's most important classical sculptures. The Laocoön, discovered in Rome in 1506, depicts the Trojan priest and his sons attacked by sea serpents. The Apollo Belvedere is considered one of the finest examples of ancient Greek sculpture. The Belvedere Torso influenced Michelangelo's muscular figures.
