Holy Relics Baroque Art and Architecture Rome Tour

Discover Andrea Pozzo's ceiling and painted dome, then the shrines associated with St Aloysius Gonzaga, St Robert Bellarmine and St John Berchmans. Connect the Jesuits' artistic programme with mission, holiness and Catholic renewal after the Reformation. Interior visit, subject to church and chapel access.

See Bernini's original angels with the Crown of Thorns and the Superscription. Learn how these sculpted symbols direct attention to Christ's Passion, and discover Borromini's contribution to the church. The objects held by the angels are sculpted representations. Interior visit, subject to access; continue from here to Trevi Fountain.

Pause at the celebrated fountain as the route crosses the historic centre after Sant’Andrea delle Fratte. Outdoor stop in the public square; entry to any ticketed viewing area is not included.

Finish before Bernini's Ecstasy of St Teresa in the Cornaro Chapel. Explore the work through Teresa of Avila's account of divine love and the role of sculpture, light and architectural setting in expressing mystical prayer. This stop concerns the sculpture, not a visit to Teresa's bodily relics. Interior visit, subject to church and chapel access.
