- • Accessibility: The Vatican Museums are largely wheelchair accessible, with lifts and ramps available. Wheelchairs can be borrowed free of charge at the cloakroom.
- • Opening days: The Vatican Museums are closed on Sundays, except the last Sunday of each month (when entry is free and queues are extremely long). They are also closed on certain religious and public holidays.
- • Children: Visitors of all ages are welcome. Please supervise children at all times, especially in crowded galleries.
- • What to bring: Your mobile ticket (printed or on your phone), a valid photo ID, and a refillable water bottle — there are free water fountains throughout the complex.
