One of Rome’s four major basilicas, this church was founded in the 4th century over the burial site of St. Paul. Rebuilt in the 19th century after a fire, it retains original mosaics and features an extensive courtyard, emphasizing early Christian architectural grandeur.

It is quite far from Rome, and the bus service is infrequent. It is a beautiful cathedral worth seeing, but if you include it in your itinerary, be sure to allow plenty of time for travel.

The church is beautiful. For me the most beautiful of the 4 Roman basilicas. But what gives you goosebumps is seeing the images of all the popes who, despite their fragilities, some more than others but all have allowed that today, after more than two thousand years, the church still lives.

Being one of the four Basilicas of Rome...but let's say maybe not the most famous...it is not very popular on a tourist level.
Personally I consider it very important because St. Paul was one of the greatest disciples of Jesus.
The Basilica is wonderful but I recommend a guide who can explain all the history drawn inside.
Being a Jubilee Church avoid Saturday and Sunday to visit it.

Impressive. The beautiful quadriportico welcomes you. Perhaps a little bare and cold but the mosaic with the evangelists takes your breath away. Absolutely worth seeing.

The mighty rows of columns that support the large frescoed walls, the precious golden mosaics... a beautiful church that I absolutely recommend visiting!

It is one of the most beautiful Basilicas in Rome. The immense external colonnades, the ceiling with decorations and the liveliness of the gilding stand out. I was struck by the portrait of Pope Francis illuminated, precisely to underline his active presence in the current pontificate. The central nave is extraordinary, we would have to invent adjectives to describe the beauties and works of art contained in this basilica, the center of world Christianity, we must visit it to realize this immense heritage of humanity.
