The wall behind the alter shows Michelangelo's painting of the ‘Last Judgement’. The Sistine Chapel is mostly known for being the space where the cardinals meet for conclave when electing a new pope. When a new pope is being elected, smoke comes from the chapel's chimney twice a day. White smoke means a new pope has been elected, while black smoke means the cardinals were not yet successful in their mission.

Today it is the site of the Papal conclave, the process by which a new pope is selected. If you visit the Vatican Museums, don't miss the Sistine Chapel, you can book only one ticket for both!.
