Description
Sun rays through the Dome
The Dome of St. Peter's Basilica, finally designed by Michelangelo, rises to a total height of 448.1 ft from the floor of the basilica to the top of the external cross. It is the tallest dome in the world. Its internal diameter is 136.1 ft. It was to the domes of the Pantheon and Florence duomo that the architects of St. Peter's looked for solutions as to how to go about building what was conceived, from the outset, as the greatest dome of Christendom.
