Michelangelus is a font created by the Holy See in partnership with Microsoft to commemorate the 400th anniversary of the consecration of St. Peter's Basilica. The font has been modeled on the handwriting of Michelangelo. The typeface will be made available on the latest versions Microsoft Office.
To develop the typeface, Microsoft engineers studied letters and other documents from within the Vatican Archives, that had been written by Michelangelo at the time of the basilica's construction.
In 2024, the Vatican commissioned Microsoft to digitally recreate St. Peter's Basilica, which can be viewed online. This began a series of events in preparation for the Basilicas 400th anniversary in 2026.
