Pantheon joins the Colosseum and Vatican Museums in reopening to visitors after the covid-19 lockdown in Rome.

The Pantheon in Rome reopens to the public on Tuesday 9 June following a closure of three months due to Italy's coronavirus emergency.

Visitors will be required to wear masks and have their temperature measured before entry, with visitor numbers controlled.

The Pantheon, which is Italy's top tourist site, attracted around 9 million visitors in 2019, and entry is free.
