One of the seven hills in ancient Rome is the Aventine hill.

F.A.Q.
- What is the story behind the Aventine Keyhole?
The Aventine Keyhole, also known as the "Keyhole of Rome," is a unique and intriguing sight located in Rome, Italy. It is found within the gate of the Priory of the Knights of Malta, on the Aventine Hill.
The keyhole provides a breathtaking and picturesque view of St. Peter's Basilica, perfectly framed by the hedges and the doorway of the priory. Visitors peer through the keyhole and are treated to a stunning sight of the basilica's dome perfectly aligned at the end of a narrow pathway bordered by greenery.
The story behind the Aventine Keyhole is rooted in the history of the Knights of Malta, a religious and military order that has occupied the Aventine Hill since the Middle Ages. The Knights of Malta have a long-standing tradition of welcoming visitors to the priory and allowing them to view the magnificent panorama of St. Peter's Basilica through the keyhole.
While the exact origin of the keyhole's design and its intentional alignment with St. Peter's Basilica is unclear, it is believed to have been designed during the Renaissance period, possibly by the architect Giovanni Battista Piranesi in the 18th century.
Regardless of its origins, the Aventine Keyhole has become a popular and enchanting attraction for visitors to Rome, offering a unique perspective of one of the city's most iconic landmarks.
