Many of us have heard of the renovations that Blessed John Paul II ordered for the Sistine Chapel but most of us have not seen them. The Vatican has released a virtual visit tour of the Sistine and you can view it by following this link. Enjoy the beauty of Michelangelo’s creation from the comfort of your own home while listening to the Vatican choir softly singing in the background.
Below is a drawing of the Sistine Chapel looked like before Michelangelo’s ceiling creation and the Last Judgement fresco behind the high altar. Take a minute to look at it before going to the Vatican site and you will have a greater appreciate for the scope of the work.
Beautiful site to visit!
Thank you!
