Renaissance architecture is characterized by features borrowed from ancient Greek and Roman styles from the 15th to 17th centuries. St. Peter's Basilica, located in Vatican City, is considered one of the greatest examples of Renaissance architecture. Designed by Bramante, Michelangelo, Maderno, and Bernini, St. Peter's Basilica has a massive scale, symmetrical facade and interior, a central dome, and arches and columns inspired by classical antiquity. It remains one of the largest churches in the world.
