Before you book

Castel Sant'Angelo ticket questions that affect what you should buy

Use these checks before choosing between official Castel Sant'Angelo tickets and partner products.

How can I visit the Passetto di Borgo?

The official daytime guided visit costs €28: the €18 museum ticket plus a €10 guided Passetto visit, with the guide covering the Passetto and bastion rather than the museum. The €28 evening visit is a restricted route through the Passetto and selected bastions, not the full museum.

Choose the daytime visit if you also want to see the whole museum.

CoopCulture: Castel Sant'Angelo tickets

Why do I need ID for Castel Sant'Angelo?

Standard tickets are named and require an original, valid identity document. One name change is allowed for online or telephone tickets until midnight before the visit, and a name that does not match your ID can lead to refused entry without a refund.

Check that every ticket carries the right name before your visit day.

Castel Sant'Angelo: visitor information

When is Castel Sant'Angelo cheaper or free?

Under-18s qualify for free admission, and EU citizens aged 18 up to and including their 25th birthday pay €2. Through December 2026, the first Monday of each month opens 14:00 to 20:00 with a €5 ticket sold on site only.

On free-entry days, collect your ticket at the museum rather than booking online.
