Known as the Vatican Apostolic Archive, this extraordinary repository contains everything from ancient papyrus manuscripts and papal decrees to the personal letters of kings, queens, and even American presidents. Its holdings include Galileo’s trial records, Henry VIII’s impassioned plea for annulment, and Mary, Queen of Scots’ final letter before her execution.
Alongside these documents are priceless works of art, such as Michelangelo’s Pietá, relics like the Crux Vaticana, and manuscripts that predate much of recorded history. Yet among all these incredible artifacts, one treasure stands above the rest in value and symbolic meaning: the Papal Tiara. This glittering crown of gold and gemstones is more than just a lavish adornment—it represents centuries of papal authority and remains the most valuable treasure in the Vatican’s possession.
