Piazza Navona

You are amazed by the lively Baroque square, starting with the Fountain of the Four Rivers by Bernini, where dramatic sculptures represent four continents. You notice the Fountain of Neptune and the Fountain of the Moor, each full of unique artistry. The elegant palaces and the Church of Sant’Agnese in Agone surround the square, creating a stunning backdrop for photos. Street artists and outdoor cafés add a vibrant, modern atmosphere that makes the square feel alive.

Church of St. Louis of the French

You step inside a hidden artistic gem just off Piazza Navona and are drawn directly to the dramatic Caravaggio masterpieces in the Contarelli Chapel. Here you see three of his most powerful paintings — The Calling of Saint Matthew, Saint Matthew and the Angel, and The Martyrdom of Saint Matthew — where bold contrasts of light and shadow bring the biblical scenes to life right before your eyes, showcasing Caravaggio’s groundbreaking style and emotional intensity. You also glimpse elegant Baroque chapels and beautiful works by other great artists that fill the space with color and history.
