    Alexander VII Chigi commissioned Bernini to modifie the façade of Santa Maria del Popolo, renovate its interior and complete the family chapel following Raphael's original design.

    Almost an art museum. Inside you will find Raphael’s Chigi Chapel (second on left as you face the main altar) and two paintings by Caravaggio (in the Cerasi Chapel, left of altar).

    The Chigi chapel, 2nd on left, was commissioned by Agostino Chigi in 1513-4 to architect Rafael, altarpiece by Del Piombo; completed in 1655 by Alexander VII Chigi, through Bernini: Daniel & Habbakuk.

    The church built to stop Nero's tomb ghost from coming... Very beautiful indeed 👍

    The Santa Maria del Popolo in Piazza del Popolo houses the strikingly dramatic Conversion of St Paul and Crucifixion of St Peter.

    This church was built on the site of Nero's tomb. Locals claim his ghost still makes the occasional appearance. – Green Guide Editor

    In this dark little church you’ll find skull & crossbones motifs everywhere and two fantastic Caravaggio paintings tucked away in the back in the corner.
