Lonely Planet review

An architectural Kinder Surprise, Bramante's perfectly proportioned Tempietto (Little Temple) is tucked away in the courtyard of Chiesa di San Pietro in Montorio, reputedly the site of St Peter's crucifixion. Lauded the first great building of the High Renaissance, it was completed in 1508, with Bernini adding the staircase in 1628. Bernini also contributed a chapel (the second on the left) in the church.
