聖天使城堡是意大利羅馬的一座城堡，由羅馬帝國皇帝哈德良於135年至139年期間興建，作為自己及其家人之陵墓。該建築位於台伯河畔，鄰近梵蒂岡教廷，聖天使城堡首先作为阻止西哥特人和东哥德人入侵的要塞，然后是作为监狱，最后改建成一座华丽的罗马教皇宫殿。現已成為博物館的用途，也成為當地的旅遊景點之一。公元6世紀教宗格列哥里一世巡游經過此地，見到天使長弥额尔顯像，城堡因而得名。
The Mausoleum of Hadrian, usually known as the Castel Sant'Angelo (English: Castle of the Holy Angel), is a towering cylindrical building in Parco Adriano, Rome, Italy. It was initially commissioned by the Roman Emperor Hadrian as a mausoleum for himself and his family. The building was later used by the popes as a fortress and castle, and is now a museum.
