This is a quick guide to Saint Peter's Basilica, one of the most amazing churches in the world. Many guidebooks only provide a very small explanation of all the artworks in the church and its complex history. This quick guide will give you detailed information about the most important artworks in and outside the church. It will prepare you for your visit, but it can also be read if you just want to know more about this amazing building and its history. My name is Paul den Arend. I am a tour guide and art historian in Rome. I have guided groups inside the Vatican and Saint Peter's for many years. I hope this quick guide will help you to enjoy Saint Peter's Basilica and understand a bit about its history and importance.
