    What It Is

    • Standing proudly above the city of Rome is the Castle of Sant'Angelo.
    • Construction of this epic fortress began in 135 AD. Throughout the centuries it has served as a prison, a palace, a mausoleum and a theatre for Puccini's Opera, Tosca.
    • It was even the resting place for Emperor Haiden's remains
    • This is one of the few Roman Castles to have survived the developments of Italy's capital city, perhaps because of it's proximity to St Pauls Basilica.

    • Inside the castle you can stroll through the lavish upper halls where banquets and balls were held.
    • Admire the finely painted murals which decorate the walls before descending to the dark and dingy servant's quarters and former prison cells.
