]]> This resource provided by the Vatican’s official website allows you to take a virtual tour of the interior of St. Peter’s Basilica as well as St. Peter’s Square. In 1506 the basilica replaced an earlier one commissioned by Pope Julius II. After the initial participation of Bramante, Raphael and Antonio da Sangallo, in 1546 Michelangelo was appointed as architect, who gave the project its final form with its imposing dome. Inside, the spectacular Baldachin and Cathedra of St. Peter by Bernini stand out, and on the outside, the main façade by Maderno and the colonnade of St. Peter’s Square by Bernini. Different links within the web portal allow access to the interior from the apse, the altar, the north and south arms of the transept, the central nave, the choir chapel, the Pietà and the exterior of St. Peter’s Square.
