Nearly 500 years ago Rome experienced one of the most brutal sacks since that of the 5th century siege of Rome by the Visigoths. It was brutal, chaotic, and memorable - still today the event remains a mainstay in Italian history, popular culture and historical intrigue.
From the death of a French Duke to the last stand of the Swiss Guard, the 1527 Sack of Rome is a fascinating story of brutality and the horrors of Renaissance era warfare.
