Overview

Join us on the exploration of one of the eternal city's most characteristic attraction. So leave your guidebook at home and follow us through the history of the Mausoleum of Hadrian, usually known as Castel Sant'Angelo. Don’t miss the chance to visit the Tomb of the Roman emperor Hadrian, also called Hadrian's mole.

Discover the ancient legend of Archangel Michael appeared atop the mausoleum, sheathing his sword as a sign of the end of the plague of 590, thus lending the castle its present name.

Feast your eyes in front of the magnificence on the frescoes, Papal apartments, and corridors of the castle and admire sculptures of angels by Bernini, Raggi and Morelli
