The Vatican Museums are the museum center of the Vatican City, in Rome. Founded by Pope Julius II in the 16th century [3], they occupy a large part of the vast courtyard of the Belvedere and are one of the largest art collections in the world, since they exhibit the enormous collection of works of art accumulated over the centuries by popes: the Sistine Chapel and the papal apartments frescoed by Michelangelo and Raphael are part of the works that visitors can admire on their way. Although the museums are located entirely in Vatican territory, their entrance is in Italian territory, in viale Vaticano 6 in Rome.
