The Scala Santa (Holy Stairs) in Rome is a sacred site for Christian pilgrims. These 28 marble steps are believed to be the very stairs that Jesus ascended during his trial before Pontius Pilate. The stairs are located next to the Basilica of San Giovanni in Laterano and are traditionally climbed on the knees by visitors as an act of devotion. The steps are enclosed in a wooden structure to protect them, and visitors can also view beautiful frescoes that adorn the walls.
