Tourist Guide

High specialization post-graduate course 2020/2021

General information

In line with the Holy Father Paul VI's Message to Artists (December 8, 1965) and SC 122, the Pontifical Liturgical Institute offers a highly specialized course for tour guides, which proposes a methodology suitable for the presentation of the contents contained in sacred art. The program provides an introduction to liturgical themes and promotes an exact understanding of the theological foundation from which the coordinates of architecture and art inspired by the Christian faith are derived, with particular attention to the biblical, ecclesiological and sacramental dimensions.
The specialization is biennial (70 ECTS = 25 ECTS per annum + 20 ECTS for the final thesis). The two years are not propaedeutic. Each academic hour is 45 minutes.
