  • Anywhere

EXPERIENCE:

Explore the Pantheon in a unique and engaging way with our audioguides and Fast Track Ticket. Collect your ticket at the Basilica of San Lorenzo in Lucina, a short distance from the Pantheon, to skip lines and enhance your visit.

Your journey begins with Adriano, the visionary emperor who commissioned the Temple of all the Gods as we see it today. Through the audioguide, hear Adriano’s voice as he relives the Pantheon’s history and his love for Rome.

Witness the perfect geometry of the dome, with a diameter of 43.44 meters, and discover the significance of the oculus, allowing sunlight to illuminate the interior like a sundial. Follow the guidance of Pope Bonifacio IV, who in 609 AD converted the temple into the Basilica of Mary and all Martyrs, safeguarding it from plunder and ensuring its integrity to this day.

Walk through the portico with columns of pink granite from Egypt and meet Raphael Sanzio of Urbino, the painter and architect, buried here with other Renaissance artists who admired classical architecture. Discover why this place was chosen for their eternal rest.

Listen to the voice of Queen Margherita, resting at the Pantheon with King Umberto I and Vittorio Emanuele II of Savoy. Imagine the rain of red rose petals during Pentecost, descending from the oculus each year to commemorate the descent of the Holy Spirit upon the Apostles.

Look up and observe the Pantheon as both a monument and a church. Mons. Micheletti, archpriest rector of the Pantheon in Rome, will guide you to view the building with different eyes.

The audioguides are voiced by talented actors such as Sergio Rubini, Alessandro Haber, Daniele Parisi, Giusi Cataldo, and Mons. Daniele Micheletti. Original compositions by Antonio Fresa, performed with the Orchestra of Teatro La Fenice, create a unique and precious experience.

Your visit will provide an extraordinary experience and contribute to supporting the activities of the Chapter of Santa Maria ad Martyres.
