After the start of the Jubilee, we visited the newly renovated Piazza Pia, which symbolically connects two iconic landmarks of Rome: Castel Sant’Angelo and St. Peter's Basilica. The square has a rich historical tradition: originally a simple medieval traffic hub, it was developed to include a portico providing shelter for pilgrims heading to St. Peter's Basilica. 👇🏼
⁉️ Did you know...? 🤔 During the excavation works, various archaeological artifacts were discovered, including a fullonica, an ancient Roman laundry dating back to the 2nd century AD. These artifacts will be displayed in the gardens of Castel Sant’Angelo.
