Centuries of historical artifacts collected by various Popes are displayed within these famed museums, including world-renowned sculptures and priceless Rennaisance art. The Vatican Museums are full of artistic and historical treasures by the world's greatest artists. Feast your eyes upon the glorious frescos painted by immortalized painters such as Michelangelo and Raphael. With well over half a hundred galleries, they are considered not just a national treasure but one of the world's most important and historical collections of art. With over 20,000 works on display and the museum reaching a yearly tourist footfall in the millions, it is no wonder that combined, they are one of the most visited art museums in the world.
Cipro and Ottaviano are two stops on Metro Lina A that are quite close to the museums. There are multiple hop-on-hop-off buses that can drop one off close to St. Peter's Square or the Via Della Conciliazione, which are both rather close to the museums.
