Full description
Explore one of the eternal city's most emblematic attractions. Leave your guidebook at home and step into 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 known as Hadrian's Mole). You'll learn about the ancient legend of Archangel Michael appearing atop the mausoleum, sheathing his sword and signalling the end of the plague of 590, thus lending the castle its present name. Feast your eyes on the magnificent frescoes, Papal apartments, and corridors of the castle. You'll also be able to admire beautiful sculptures of angels by Bernini, Raggi and Morelli.

Visita interessante e molto ben condotta dalla sig.ra Giuliana molto molto competente. Ci ha coinvolto con racconti e aneddoti suscitando quelle emozioni che una visita di questo tipo deve trasmettere. Una menzione alla Doooing, agenzia che ha gestito la prenotazione, si è dimostrata seria e affidabile. Grazie !

Eine wirklich tolle und informative Tour! Die Engelsburg ist ein absolut faszinierendes Gebäude mit dem antiken Kern und all den Umbauten aus allen möglichen Jahrhunderten. Mein Guide war sehr nett und extrem gut im Thema. Nichts, was er nicht wusste. So wurde meine Führung ein wirklich spannendes Erlebnis! Vielen Dank!

I Partner locali sono stati molto educati e disponibili nel comprendere le nostre esigenze. La guida, Andreada, nonostante fosse la prima volta che gestiva un tour in lingua italiana è stata molto brava e ha fornito dettagli storici rilevanti, mostrandosi preparata e molto gentile. Assolutamente consigliato!
