apostles." this is where the overwhewhole begins. >> reporter: the basilica is a marvel, it's the work of 12 architects and a roster of renaissance masters, serving 20 popes over the course of 120 years. what's miraculous says elizabeth lebb is that it all came together so beautifully. >> imagine the dome hovering directly below peter's tomb below. and when the pope steps in the footsteps of peter the fisherman, he is the, they explained the papacy in the domestic. >> reporter: it would be the crowning glory of michelangelo. and toward the front of the

basilica, the much younger michelangelo's break through work, sculpted from a single piece of marble, the pea eta. >> a word poignant for our pope. so michael angela has the pieta, the sorrowful mother mary holding the body of jesus as it was taken down from the cross. imagine how heavy that is. she is an extraordinarily strong woman, right? there's a tenderness there, a compassion, a pieta. you can almost see a surrender. >> reporter: only a few years later, michelangelo would paint the ceiling of the sistine chapel where they gather to elect the new pope. the decision to open the museums to the general public regardless

of religion was revolutionary. >> there is a painting of the man who opened that museum, pope pious the vi, giving a tour. you see this painting of the two of them walking side by side, standing under the statues. that's what the museum, it's a platform of dialog. >> reporter: you don't have to be catholic, you don't have to be christian to look at the tapestries of risen christ and marvel. >> you semen wie men with big t. assuming they're muslim. >> reporter: today the vaticans museums comprise the largest collections in the world. three and a half-miles of museum and the first of its magnitude to have a woman as director, barbara yata. when you find out you've been appointed the director of the

plaster and smashed it through the wall and smoothed it over, beams remained in there. >> reporter: wow, that's nice to know americans played such a vital part in the creation of this. and today americans pay for much of the restoration through the vatican's patrons of the arts program. >> these works of art belong to the whole world. we only hold them as a custodian, as a steward. they belong to everybody. >> reporter: on the day we were in the basilica with cardinal dolan, it was beautifully illuminated for the feast of the chair of peter. >> you look up and see that magnificent encrusted with bronze and iron chair. the chair represents unity and teaching, and so the successor of peter, the pope, his chair there. >> all the threads in the rose of the vatican lead back to the presence of peter. we are perhaps the most beautiful outgrowth and offshoot in art and architecture that comes from that seed that was planted 2,000 years ago.
