Capitoline Museums
The two museum buildings on the square realized by Michelangelo, are open again after long restoration works. In an extraordinary tour you see the Palace dei Conservatori, the Esedra of Marcus Aurelius, the Pinakothek, the Tabularium with the gallery of the inscriptions and the so-called Palazzo Nuovo.
The Capitoline collection was established in 1471 by Pope Sixtus IV. with the donation of some bronze statues to the Roman people. Therefore it´s considered as the oldest museum in the world. It contains the oldest collection of classical sculptures, including the wolf with the twins Romulus and Remus, the Capitoline Venus and the Dying Gaul.
2005 the Esedra of Marcus Aurelius- the ancient equestrian statue, whose copy now stands in the center of Capitoline square- received after nine years of restoration their new place- a 1000 square meters hall with a glass roof.

S. Angel’s Castle
From mausoleum and state prison to papal residence – a visit through many centuries . It is one of the greatest examples of Roman architecture. Emperor Hadrian had built it 135 AD. as a powerful mausoleum for himself and his successors. In the following centuries the plant was repeatedly modified and expanded- it became a fortress and served as a prison. In the 13th century the Castel Sant’Angelo was connected with the Vatican palace by the so-called “Passetto”, which served as an escape way to the Popes in danger.
