The Vatican Museums room is a house for many human genius art works, as well as paintings and sculptures collected by the Supreme Pope over the centuries. The museum also has excellent art monuments such as the Sistine Chapel, the Beato Angelico Chapel, the Raphael Rooms and the Loggia, and the Borgia Apartments.
The Sistine Chapel is one of the most important treasures in Vatican City, Rome, and the world. Famous for its frescoes, but also famous for the Pope's elections here. But what is most striking about the Sistine Chapel is not its architecture, but the frescoes that completely decorate the walls and ceiling. Famous artists such as Botticelli, Perugino and Michelangelo contributed to the vast decoration of the chapel.
