After-Hours: Church of St. Lawrence

Basilica San Lorenzo After Hours

Rome, Italy

Get a new perspective of Rome with a twilight tour of the eternal city. As the sun goes down on the capital, you make your way to the vantage point of the Janiculum to witness the famous piazzas and monuments, such as the Colosseum and Arch of Constantine, take on a charming illuminated appearance. Afterwards, you move on to the nearby Church of St. Lawrence for a special after-hours visit with exclusive permission of the College of Pharmacists.

Background

Originally a 2nd-century Roman temple, the church is normally closed to the public and the breathtaking views extending out across the ancient Roman Forum, empty at this time of day, are missed by most. Having taken in this spectacular sight, you continue your evening experience by exploring the church’s museum of pharmaceutical history and its private library, rich in artifacts connected to Renaissance figures, such as Raphael.
