A vast heritage that encompasses centuries of history, a journey into the past to discover fascinating stories, admire paintings, statues, and frescoes. We suggest AdaHome, the Guest House in the central Parioli district, an excellent location for getting around the city.
The Rape of Proserpina – Borghese Gallery Museum Roma
A guided tour of the Vatican Museums and the Sistine Chapel
One of the most visited museums in the world, it houses works of inestimable value. For over five hundred years, it has gathered art collections that will enchant you. Initiated by the wish of Pope Julius II, who donated his private collection in 1503, the greatest artists of each era have since helped to expand this immense treasury of art.
Given the enormity of this collection, we recommend choosing a guided tour and booking entrance tickets online to avoid long queues. You can admire the Gallery of Maps, the Pio Clementino Museum, the Stanze di Raffaello, the Pinacoteca with works by Giotto, Perugino, Tiziano, Caravaggio, Leonardo da Vinci, and much more.
The Sistine Chapel is the jewel of the museums, still used as the gathering place for the conclave to elect the pope. Here you will be mesmerized by the frescoes along the side walls, behind the altar, and on the ceiling. The most famous in the world are the Creation and the Giudizio Universale by Michelangelo, two masterpieces by one of the most important artists of all time.
Borghese Gallery: a museum surrounded by greenery
Smaller but no less interesting is the Borghese Gallery Museum, located within Villa Borghese, one of the city parks in the heart of the city. The park hosts several historic buildings such as the Pietro Canonica Museum, the Casina di Raffaello, the Cinema House, the Biopark, Piazza di Siena, and of course the Borghese Gallery Museum.
The collection housed inside gathers works by illustrious authors, from classical art to paintings to sculptures, by authors who have succeeded each other over the centuries. Among the most famous works are those by Gian Lorenzo Bernini; you can admire Apollo and Daphne, The Rape of Proserpina, David, and Truth. You will also find works by Canova, Caravaggio, Raphael, Perugino, Titian, and we suggest being accompanied by a guide to navigate this vast artistic heritage.
