About this event

On the last Sunday of the month the Vatican Museums open at no charge, Sistine Chapel included. It is the one morning a month when the Raphael Rooms and the Gallery of Maps cost nothing; the queue along Viale Vaticano starts well before opening, so come early.

Why we picked it

The single highest-value free morning in Rome — and it falls inside the window on 30 August.
