    I have some woodchip in my house, pretty sure if I tried to remove it the plaster would come away too.

    It costs a fortune to go in and see that place. I thought chapels were meant to be places of worship not places of daylight robbery The Sistine Chapel. 16779677

    I think it takes in about €70 million/year in tourist fees. Ooops! just checked...correction: €80 million/year or £70 million. 25,000 visitors/day! The Sistine Chapel. 3275847336 or 5 million per year. Pretty decent money earner.Telegraph
