Basilica of Santa Maria Maggiore Ticket with Audio Guide + Climb the Dome
Why Visit the Basilica of Santa Maria Maggiore?
Welcome to the Basilica of Santa Maria Maggiore! Located on Esquiline Hill, it's the largest Marian church in Rome and one of the four papal basilicas. Did you know the Basilica is set to be one of the special venues that will open its Holy Doors for the Jubilee of 2025?
As you pass through its doors, you'll see how the interior shows varied architectural styles, from Paleochristian to Baroque. The entire building was restored and refurbished during the 18th century, so the façade and part of the decoration are from this period. It also retains some elements of the medieval period, like bell tower, some mosaics, and marble floors.
Thanks to the audio guide, you'll come to discover the many treasures inside the Basilica. You can admire the Bernini Family tomb, the Guido Reni frescoes, the sculptures of Arnolfo di Cambio and the Holy Door, among many other masterpieces. A perfect combination of Christian art's most important stages within Rome!
Climbing the Dome
Upgrade your experience to include access to the domes where you can climb all the way up to the top! Enjoy the breathtaking views from the highest part of Santa Maria Maggiore, from where you'll have a panoramic view of Rome that will leave you speechless.
