It is the smallest country in the world, %ut %ehind the walls are the 'reatest secrets in

history. (e#initely, not only on Sundays, %ut e$ery day is s"ecial in the Vatican City.

For 'enerations it has %een s"eculated a%out the #amous Vatican Secret Archi$es,

which now, they are not so secret. E$eryone nows that e)ist and many o# them ha$e

already %een o"ened to students o# di##erent %ranches. It cannot %e so secret somethin'

that is in *ii"edia. +ie all the e)traordinary thin's in the world. The #iles are in sim"le

si'ht.

!ut it was not always lie this. For e)am"le -o"e -io VII had to de#ender #iles, and the

same city, #rom the hands o# na"oleon. At this time many #iles were lost. Some were

%urned, others ended how to wra" #ish.

!ut the Vatican is not ust #iles. !elow, a%o$e, sides and e$erythin' is #ull o# history and

secrets.

Throu'hout the year, thousands o# "eo"le $isit the city, %ut #ew or any now where to

wal. /ost would %e sur"rised to learn that the Vatican is %uilt ato" a city o# death.

There was an Etruscan city, which had a cemetery that is now ust %elow the %asilica o#

%ones o# -eter. The heart o# St. -eter0s !asilica is %uilt o$er the tom% o# -eter. A sacred

"lace that only a #ew ha$e access.

1nowin' this, we can acce"t that some treasures are not easily accessi%le, so that they

can continue to e)ist #ore$er. They will still %e secret and the law that a "o"e #iles are
