88 Stone Steps Until Heaven

As some of you might know, this magnificent spiral staircase is normally closed to the public and you need to book a guided tour in advance. The thing about guided tours is, that you are not alone while visiting, and taking pictures usually turns out to become quite a challenge. Now I was either very lucky or a very good actress, but after explaining to a very nice man, that I had come all the way from Switzerland just to see this incredible staircase, he looked at me with a big grin on his face and went to get the key. I ended up enjoying a private tour of this famous staircase and felt like Harry Potter in the Prisoner of Azkaban! :-)
