I could buy the ticket with no queues nor lines. The online purchase is very convenient. At the place I was able to listen to each piece of information separately and repeat the audio in need. After, the audio was still available and I could relisten to the stories. Additionally, each audio part has a title photo that facilitates determining where you are or where you're supposed to go. It was really great and I will use it again when/where I can. Thank you. :)

There is no line, so no waiting at the entrance. Also good is the audioguide solution via appa on the phone, the contents of which could be improved a little bit (a brief introductory history of the site, from its origins to the present day; remember to follow the itinerary suggested by the signage present).

It was a beautiful building and I am glad we saw it but I would have liked the audio guide to be more step by step. Inside the castle they had an audio guide that was numbered and as you stopped at each location you would understand where you were and what you were seeing. Nothing is clearly marked at the castle so we had to look at pictures on the app to see if we were in the right room. Some of the rooms had more than. One part of the tour and there was no guidance on where to go or where to stand in those instances.

The audio guide did not fully download and was confusing. We ended up abandoning the audio and just read the signs. It was pretty much exactly the same. Castle D'santangelo itself was fantastic and we very much enjoyed the experience.

Explore the Mausoleum Leisurely

Visit the ancient fortress of Castel Sant'Angelo, a landmark only a short distance from the Vatican City with centuries of history hidden behind its walls. Explore this mausoleum-turned-museum and explore the seven floors of the museum as you uncover ancient artifacts, perfectly preserved frescoes from the Renaissance period.

Climb the spiral staircase that takes you to the Chamber of Ashes, where many historical figures were incarcerated. Continue your way up to the Papal Residence and listen to stories of different rooms as you bask in the glorious artwork within. Finally, at the Castle's terrace, drink in remarkable panoramic views over Rome, the River Tiber, and Ponte Sant'Angelo bridge, a great opportunity for you to take some pictures!

Tune in to your audio guide

You have the option of selecting a ticket that comes with a handy digital audio guide that will help you navigate your way through the Mausoleum. Tune in to the introductory commentary from your smartphone - yes, it’s that convenient! Learn well-known facts about Castel Sant’Angelo as you walk around the attraction at your own pace.
