Sistine Chapel and Vatican Museum Tour.

The world-famous Sistine Chapel is located directly across the street from the Vatican Museum. The Sistine Chapel was completed in the 15th century by a number of notable Italian artists, including Pietro Perugino and Sandro Botticelli. After it, Michelangelo Buonarroti was commissioned to build the vault in 1508. During your Rome vacation, pay homage to the work of this young and gifted artist by visiting the Vatican Museum and the Sistine Chapel. The Sistine Chapel also plays a role in the life of the Catholic community at the Vatican: it is here that the Cardinals convene when a decision on the Pope must be taken. Visit the Vatican Museum and the Sistine Chapel: the Chapel, which presents the Genesis account to every visitor every day, will astound you.
