The Sistine Chapel is already far enough from Minnesota. Given the distance and cost of traveling to Italy, it’s no small feat to plan a trip to this world-famous landmark. Add in COVID-19 travel restrictions, and the beautiful chapel might as well be on the moon. But that doesn’t mean you can’t still experience the beautiful paintings that make the chapel famous. At the Mall of America this winter, a brand-new exhibit showcases the Renaissance frescoes like never before. Read on below to learn more about what to expect from this exciting event.

This winter, a traveling Sistine Chapel Exhibit will let you see some of the world's most famous art like never before. Michelangelo's Sistine Chapel: The Exhibition will be held at the Mall of America from November 13, 2020 to January 31, 2021.
