Lavishly decorated with frescoes, mosaics and papal monuments, it drew religious pilgrims from across Europe and was the site of the crowning of Charlemagne as Holy Roman Emperor by Leo III. The structural deterioration of Old Saint Peter's became a matter of urgency in the 15th century, and Nicholas V decided it would be rebuilt. Work was sporadic, however, until the reign of Julius II, under whom Bramante began dismantling (and greatly destroying) the old church in 1506. Succeeding popes and the artists they employed to continue work on the church proposed conflicting designs (Greek cross vs Latin cross), until in 1546 Michelangelo was summoned by Paul III; he decided to return to Bramante's original Greek-cross plan, with daring modifications; nevertheless, in 1605 Paul V ordered that the nave be lengthened toward the Piazza S Pietro, ensuring that when the church was finally consecrated on 18 November 1626, it was in the form of a Latin cross. The interior of Saint Peter's is filled with many masterpieces of Renaissance and Baroque art, among the most famous of which are Michelangelo's Pieta, the baldachin by Bernini over the main altar, the statue of St. Longinus in the crossing, the tomb of Urban VIII, and the bronze cathedra of Saint Peter in the apse.
