Scala Sancta
Composed of 28 steps, the Holy Stairs are located in a building adjacent to the Basilica of John Lateran and lead to the Sancta Sanctorum, the personal chapel of the early popes. Believed to be the original steps that Christ climbed on his way to trial in Jerusalem, the steps are now encased in a protective framework of wooden steps. Tradition states that pilgrims must kneel at each step and pray, slowly moving up the steps.
