It served various purposes, including a private residence for popes, a prison, a venue for public executions, and the State Treasury. On this family-friendly tour, you'll meet your engaging guide at the castle entrance, where you'll explore secret passageways, trap doors, and drawbridges while discovering an impressive collection of ancient weapons.

Here, you'll find the tombs of notable figures, including King Vittorio Emanuele II and the renowned painter Raphael. The Pantheon was dedicated to all gods of the past and future and was converted into a Christian church in 608 A.D. Its impressive architecture and historical significance make it a must-see on your tour.
