Abstract

The aim of the article is to discuss the reasons why Nicolaus Copernicus, who was studying law in Bologna, in 1500 went to Rome with his brother Andrzej. In the first part, sources relating directly to the stay of the Copernicus brothers in the Eternal City were presented and analysed. In the second part, the author discusses various motivations that could have prompted the scholars of Toruń to visit Rome (the desire to see monuments and become acquainted with the intellectual atmosphere of the city; to earn money and gain experience in the legal profession; to obtain jubilee indulgences and visit holy sites).

Keywords:

Nicolaus Copernicus, history of Rome, Jubilee of 1500, Roman Curia, Renaissance
