The stairs were used by the Pope to go to his private home in his carriage, as the stairs were no stairs but were an elevated pavement. The old staircase is not open to the public but the new staircase that is inspired by the old one is allowed to be climbed and visited by the public. The staircases resemble the structure of human DNA and are made in such a way that people ascending the staircases can not see the people descending.
