    Piazza della Repubblica

    All of Rome is built on top of ruins that were once the most majestic buildings in the entire world. Piazza della Repubblica is no exception - the square was erected on the site of ancient buildings. Earlier, in the first millennium of our era, on the site of the square there were very popular among the Romans Thermae Diocletian - a complex of baths, including both cold and hot baths, gymnasiums, a library and gardens of extraordinary beauty. Unfortunately, these buildings lasted relatively briefly - two centuries - and were destroyed at the decline of the Western Roman Empire in the 500s.

    Ponte Sant'Angelo

    Today, it is one of the oldest bridges in Rome. A key feature of this arched bridge, lined with marble slabs, are the grandiose sculptures of ten stone angels and two holy apostles (Peter and Paul), placed opposite each other along the entire length of the bridge. Guarding the bridge, Bernini conceived the angels holding in their hands symbols of passions, that is, they are a kind of personification of earthly passions. The majestic figures of angels, made in the Baroque style, which absorbed the unmistakable features of antiquity, were erected by the master during the reign of Pope Clement the 9th.
