The Vatican Museums are one of the largest and oldest museums in the world, located in the Vatican Palace. With more than 1400 rooms, these museums form an extremely important museum complex.

Their value derives from the quantity and quality of masterpieces collected by various popes over the centuries, as well as from the sumptuous rooms in which these works are exhibited. Here are some key facts about the Vatican Museums:
