The story

Story · Porta Pia

You're standing at Porta Pia, one of the gates in the ancient Aurelian Walls around Rome. This is where the Via Nomentana begins, a road that already led out of the city in Roman times. And this gate is special: it was Michelangelo's very last architectural work. He died shortly before it was finished.
