list
What not to miss:
Architecture
inside and out
The 5-story building has an interesting design, inside and out. For instance,
you can walk up a long, spiraling indoor ramp that abuts the circular outer
wall.
Papal
apartments
They were luxuriantly decorated during the Renaissance.
Prison
cells
High-profile political prisoners were incarcerated (and sometimes tortured and
executed) during the Castel Sant'Angelo's papal period.
Military
equipment
Ancient tools of war including armor and weaponry are on display.
Rooftop
terrace
Enjoy a panoramic view of Rome and the Tiber River. There's a small cafe for
food, drink and relaxing.
How
to
avoid the crowds
Be there in the morning when the venue opens. As a bonus, the low-angled sunlight will enhance your photos.
