Starting from March 1st, during the peak tourist season, the opening hours on Fridays, Saturdays, and specific dates are extended until 20:00 (last entry at 18:00). On the last Sunday of each month, the museums are open for free from 9:00 to 14:00 (last entry at 12:30).
🎨 Visitor's Guide:
The museums have recommended visiting routes, and there are some points to note:
🌍 The Sistine Chapel closes at 16:00. If you plan to visit in the afternoon, it's recommended to start with the Sistine Chapel. Once you exit through the spiral staircase, you won't be allowed to re-enter. If you are not sure about finishing the visit, don't walk all the way down the stairs.
The famous collections include sculptures like "Laocoön and His Sons" and "Apollo Belvedere," as well as masterpieces like Michelangelo's "Creation of Adam" and "The Last Judgment," and Raphael's "The School of Athens" and "The Transfiguration." "The Creation of Adam" is found in one of the wall paintings. We suggest allowing sufficient time to leisurely explore the museum, immersing yourself in the history and destiny of humanity.
- When you exit the Vatican Museums, you will find St. Peter's Basilica, and climbing the dome requires a separate ticket (elevator ticket: 10 euros, stairs ticket: 8 euros). The elevator doesn't go all the way to the top, and you'll need to climb 315 steps. From the top, you can enjoy a panoramic view of the famous key-shaped St. Peter's Square and overlook the entire city.
Tips:
Sleeveless tops, short skirts, and shorts are not allowed when entering the museums.
