Michelangelo's final project was the design and construction of the dome of St. Peter's Basilica in Vatican City. He took on the role of chief architect in 1546, significantly influencing its Renaissance design. Although he passed away in 1564 before its completion, his innovative ideas and sketches laid the groundwork for the dome, which remains a monumental achievement in architecture.
