ST PETER'S BASILICA INSIDE & CLIMB to CUPOLA - tour - VATICAN CITY - ROME
St Pteter’s Basilica tour guide:
DK Eyewitness Travel Guide: Rome:
St. Peter's Basilica located in the Vatican City Rome Italy, west of the Tiber River near the Janiculum Hill and Hadrian's Mausoleum. It's CUPOLA (dome) dominates the skyline of Rome. The basilica is approached via St. Peter's Square. It's Renaissance style facade of the basilica, with giant columns, stretches across the end of the square and is approached by steps on which stand two 18.2 ft statues of the 1st-century apostles to Rome, Saints Peter and Paul.
The basilica is cruciform shaped, with elongated nave in the Latin cross. The central space is dominated both externally and internally by one of the largest domes in the world. One of the decorated bronze doors leading from the narthex is the Holy Door, only opened during jubieles. The interior is of vast dimensions when compared with other churches. Only gradually does it dawn upon us – as we watch people draw near to this or that monument, strangely they appear to shrink; they are dwarfed by the scale of everything in the building. With piers supporting a barrel-vault, the highest of any church. The nave has a number of chapels. There are also chapels surrounding the dome around in a clockwise direction they are: The Baptistery, the Chapel of the Presentation of the Virgin, the larger Choir Chapel, the Clementine Chapel with the altar of Saint Gregory, the Sacristy Entrance, the left transept with altars to the Crucifixion of Saint Peter, Saint Joseph and Saint Thomas, the altar of Saint Peter, the apse with the Chair of Saint Peter, the altar of Saint Peter raising Tabitha, the altar of the Archangel Michael, the altar of the Navicella, the right transept with altars of Saint Erasmus, Saints Processo and Martiniano, and Saint Wenceslas, the altar of Saint Basil, the Gregorian Chapel with the altar of the Madonna of Succour, the larger Chapel of the Holy Sacrament, the Chapel of Saint Sebastian and the Chapel of the Pietà. At the heart of the basilica, beneath the high altar, is the Confessio or Chapel of the Confession, in reference to the confession of faith by St. Peter, which led to his martyrdom. Two curving marble staircases lead to this underground chapel at the level of the Constantinian church and immediately above the burial place of Saint Peter. The entire interior of St. Peter's is decorated with marble, reliefs, architectural sculpture and gilding. Contains a large number of tombs of popes and a number of sculptures in niches and chapels, including Michelangelo's Pietà. The central feature is a baldachino, or canopy over the Papal Altar, designed by Gian Lorenzo Bernini. The sanctuary a sculptural ensemble, also by Bernini, and containing the symbolic Chair of Saint Peter. One observer wrote: St Peter's Basilica is the reason why Rome is still the center of the civilized world. For religious, historical, and architectural reasons it by itself justifies a journey to Rome..... The American philosopher Ralph Waldo Emerson described St. Peter's as an ornament of the earth .... After the crucifixion of Jesus on Friday 7 April, AD 30, it is recorded in the Biblical book of the Acts of the Apostles that one of his twelve disciples, Simon known as Saint Peter, took a leadership position among Jesus' followers and was of great importance in the founding of the Christian Church. It is believed by a long tradition that Peter, after a ministry of thirty-four years, traveled to Rome and met his martyrdom there with Paul on 13 October, AD 64 during the reign of the Roman Emperor Nero. The execution was one of many martyrdom of Christians following the Great Fire of Rome. According to Origin, Peter was crucified head downwards, by his own request because he considered himself unworthy to die in the same manner as Jesus. The crucifixion took place near an ancient Egyptian obelisk in the Circus of Nero. The obelisk now stands in St. Peter's Square and revered as a witness to Peter's death. According to tradition, Peter's remains were buried outside the Circus, on the Mons Vaticanus across the Via Cornelia from the Circus, less than 490 ft from his place of death. Peter's grave was initially marked by a red rock, symbolic of his name. A shrine was built on this site some years later. Almost three hundred years later, Old St. Peter's Basilica was constructed over this site.

Vatican Necropolis - Necropoli Vaticana
The Vatican Necropolis lies under the Vatican City, at depths varying between 5–12 meters below Saint Peter's Basilica. The Vatican sponsored archeological excavations under Saint Peter's in the years 1940–1949 which revealed parts of a necropolis dating to Imperial times. The work was undertaken at the request of Pope Pius XI who wished to be buried as close as possible to Peter the Apostle. It is also home to the Tomb of the Julii, which has been dated to the third or fourth century. The necropolis was not originally one of the underground Catacombs of Rome, but an open air cemetery with tombs and mausolea.
La Necropoli Vaticana, ubicata sotto la Basilica di San Pietro in Vaticano, sotto il livello delle grotte vaticane, in corrispondenza della navata centrale della stessa basilica, è un cimitero di epoca romana, posto accanto al circo di Nerone, dove coesistono tombe databili al periodo tra I e IV secolo (sia pagane che cristiane). In epoca imperiale l'area del Vaticano non era ricompresa tra le mura cittadine e vedeva la presenza di aree cimiteriali, in relazione con la Via Trionfale (posta tra Vaticano e Mausoleo di Adriano).
Secondo un'antichissima tradizione, il sito è riconosciuto come luogo della sepoltura dell'apostolo Pietro, che dovrebbe aver subito il martirio proprio nei vicini Horti neroniani.
Die Vatikanische Nekropole befindet sich direkt unter dem Petersdom in der Vatikanstadt in Rom. Die Nekropole war eine römische Begräbnisstätte und ist nach 1600 Jahren erst seit den Ausgrabungen in den 1950er Jahren wieder zugänglich. In der Vatikanischen Nekropole befindet sich das vermutliche Grab des Apostels Petrus. Die Vatikanische Nekropole ist nicht mit den Vatikanischen Grotten zu verwechseln. Letztere entstanden durch den Neubau des Petersdoms und befinden sich auf dem Bodenniveau der ehemaligen konstantinischen Basilika.
La nécropole du Vatican également connue sous le nom de Scavi, s'étend sous la Cité du Vatican, à une profondeur qui varie de 5 à 12 mètres, sous la basilique Saint-Pierre.
Elle a été un lieu de sépulture romaine abritant des tombes païennes et chrétiennes qui datent de la fin du Ier siècle av. J.-C. au IVe siècle ; elle n'est accessible que depuis les fouilles des années 1940. Dans la nécropole du Vatican se trouve ce que l’on pense être la tombe de saint Pierre, l'apôtre.
La nécropole du Vatican ne doit pas être confondue avec les grottes du Vatican appelées également Nécropole papale. Celles-ci résultent de la construction de Saint-Pierre et se trouvent au niveau du sol de l'ancienne basilique constantinienne. La nécropole du Vatican, un ancien cimetière, était située sur la colline du Vatican, le long de la Voie triomphale.
Nekropolis i Vatikanstaten, också känt som Scavi, ligger under Sankt Peterskyrkan i Vatikanstaten på ett djup av mellan 5 och 12 meter. Under en av Vatikanen finansierad utgrävning av Peterskyrkan år 1940 till 1949 frigjordes delar av en nekropol från tiden för det romerska kejsardömet (27 f.Kr.–476 e.Kr.). Utgrävningen tog sin början efter att påve Pius XI så begärde. Han önskade bli begravd så nära som möjligt aposteln Petrus. Petrus antas ha blivit begravd där på grund av dess närhet till Neros cirkus där han led martyrdöden. På platsen finns förutom Petrus grav även Juliernas grav. Valvmosaiken dateras till andra eller tredje århundradet e.Kr.
År 2003 upptäcktes ytterligare begravningsplatser i och med byggandet av en parkeringsplats. Vissa av gravplatserna har restaurerats, exempelvis under tiomånadersprojektet som omfattade Valeriernas Mausoleum.
De Vaticaanse necropolis, ook bekend als de Scavi, ligt onder de Sint-Pietersbasiliek in Vaticaanstad.
De necropolis ontstond vanaf de 1e eeuw langs de Via Cornelia die over de Vaticaanse heuvel in westelijke richting liep. Volgens de overlevering werd hier Petrus begraven, nadat hij in het naastgelegen Circus van Nero was gekruisigd. Ondanks de verscheidene perioden van de christenvervolgingen, werd zijn graf op deze plaats altijd vereerd door het groeiende aantal christenen. Zij kwamen als pelgrims naar het graf om te bidden. Velen wilden ook in de buurt van Petrus' graftombe begraven worden, zodat er in de loop der tijd een grote necropolis ontstond.
360 Video: Inside the Tomb of St. Peter at the Vatican
Get ready to meet St. Peter.
Yahoo News was granted rare access to film inside the Vatican Grottos, a series of chapels and papal tombs located directly beneath the famous St. Peter’s Basilica in Vatican City. In 360 degrees, the final resting places of popes dating back to the Middle Ages can be viewed on a virtual tour narrated by Yahoo Global News Anchor Katie Couric.
Of the 266 Popes throughout history, approximately 100 of them are buried below the basilica. On the tour, viewers will see monuments to Pope Nicholas the Fifth, Pope Innocent the Seventh, and Pope Paul the Second, among others.
In an exclusive and stunning conclusion to the tour, Yahoo News filmed the tomb of St. Peter, the man Catholics call the “First Pope,” one of the twelve Apostles of Jesus Christ. The remains of Peter are located directly beneath the altar where Pope Francis celebrates Mass, and create a literal foundation for the Church and its deep and storied history.
Vaticano 206 - 2015-06-28 – The underground labyrinth of Rome
On this week’s Vaticano:
We follow Pope Francis on his trip to the northern Italian city of Turin, where he prays at the Shroud and remembers St. John Bosco.
Concerned parents gather in Rome to contest the Italian government's pending decision for a compulsory sexual education in opposition to the Catholic faith.
The highly anticipated encyclical of the Pope “Laudato Si” is officially launched in the Vatican.
All this plus the 120th successor of St. Francis of Assisi tells us about his order. And, we discover the underground treasures of Rome’s catacombs.
For all this and more, stay tuned, you are watching VATICANO.

Rome Day 3 | HIDDEN PASSAGES in St. Peter's Basilica???
Our last full day in Rome! We take an amazing semi-private tour of the Vatican, see the Pope's car, Lindsay steals our tour guide's flag and the GoPro just DIES...
The Vatican, Peter, and 'Satan's Throne'
This is an on-location video from Vatican City and Rome, Italy. Topics covered include St. Peter's basilica, head coverings, the 'keys of the kingdom,' where the Apostle Peter was buried, claims about the Apostle Paul, and why the Cathedra Petri may be a representation of 'Satan's throne.'
Pope Francis visiting the tomb of St. Peter. He will venerate the tomb.
ST PETER'S TREASURY MUSEUM AND VATICAN GROTTOES-Tombs of the Popes!
From an entrance door inside St. Peter's Basilica, you can visit the Treasury Museum, which features ornate gifts to kings and princes, including a heavily jeweled Papal Tiara. In the main room is the bronze funerary monument to Pope Sixtus IV-the Sistine Chapel was named after him. Underneath the main floor of St. Peter's Basilica is the Vatican Grottoes (not to be confused with the Necropolis which is even lower), containing several tombs of Popes. Both are very interesting and are highly recommended to visit after you see the main attractions in St. Peter's Basilica.

CATACOMBS OF ROME-CREEPY, BIZARRE, UNFORGETTABLE! (With Capuchin Bone Crypt)
This will probably be one of the eeriest and bizarre videos you'll watch, especially when you see the Capuchin Crypt, where the bones of 3,700 Capuchin monks are arranged in various artistic ways as a tribute to the dead. It was not something I'll ever forget. Our next stop was the Catacombs of San Callisto where up to a half a million bodies were bodies were buried because Christians at that time were being persecuted and could not be buried in regular cemeteries. The Basilica of San Clemente isn't a catacomb, but a richly decorated three-tiered church that has its origins from the 1st century. We got to see the top level which is from the early 12th century.
