The Vatican Museums (Rome, Italy)
The Vatican Museums's old spiral staircase is one of the most beautiful parts of the space. Known as the Bramante Staircase, the original was built in 1505, which the new one (pictured) was completed in 1932.

WTF was wrong with the original one? Not satanic enough or something?

The original still exists. They did not demolish it. This is a separate staircase.

Apparently they really like the name. 😁

Looks amazing. The safety stripes kinda ruin it though. Is there no way they could have done something more decorative?

Would push people down it again. 10/10.

Designed and built by niggers, no doubt.
