About This Tour

A private tour for your group only, from the genuine Mausoleum of Hadrian (Castel Sant'Angelo) through Piazza Navona to the real Pantheon. This is a private tour for your group only. Real stops include Castel Sant'Angelo, the Ponte Sant'Angelo, Via dei Coronari, Piazza Navona with the genuine Fontana dei Quattro Fiumi, and the real Pantheon.

Castel Sant'Angelo began life as something entirely different from what it became: Emperor Hadrian commissioned it as a mausoleum for himself and his family, with construction starting in 123 AD and finishing in 139 AD under his successor Antoninus Pius. Hadrian's own ashes were deposited here after his death in 138 AD, and for nearly three centuries it served that original purpose before Rome's fortunes changed around it.

In 401 AD, Emperor Honorius folded the mausoleum into Rome's new Aurelian defensive walls, destroying much of its original interior, and by the medieval period it had become a stronghold and prison. A hidden elevated corridor, the Passetto di Borgo, still links it directly to the Vatican — the same escape route Pope Clement VII used in 1527 when Charles V's troops sacked Rome. The philosopher Giordano Bruno was held here for roughly six years before his 1600 execution at Campo de' Fiori, and executions themselves were carried out in the castle's own inner courtyard.

From there the route follows the Ponte Sant'Angelo, the statue-lined bridge where ten marble angels, carrying instruments of Christ's Passion, were designed by Bernini in 1668 (he carved two himself; workshop sculptors finished the rest to his sketches). It continues through the tangle of lanes around Via dei Coronari, once Rome's street of antique dealers, into Piazza Navona and its 1651 Fontana dei Quattro Fiumi, ending at the Pantheon, whose coffered dome — still the largest unreinforced concrete dome in the world — has stood largely unchanged since its rebuilding under Hadrian around 126 AD.
