La Basilica Papale di San Paolo fuori le Mura è una delle quattro basiliche papali di Roma, la seconda più grande dopo quella di San Pietro in Vaticano. Il corpo della basilica è preceduto dal cortile quadriporticato (70 metri di lato) realizzato tra il 1890 e il 1928 da Guglielmo Calderini su progetto iniziale di Luigi Poletti. Mentre il nartece, ovvero il portico che costeggia la facciata della basilica, ha una sola fila di colonne, i due laterali hanno una doppia fila, quello che si trova sul lato opposto presenta una tripla fila di colonne più alte e robuste rispetto alle altre. Le pareti laterali sono decorate con medaglioni raffiguranti i simboli degli apostoli e alcuni discepoli di San Paolo. Nei medaglioni del lato d'ingresso, invece, sono raffigurati i dodici apostoli. Al centro del cortile si trova la statua di San Paolo, realizzata in marmo di Carrara da Giuseppe Obici. Il quadriportico ha subito significativi danneggiamenti in seguito al terremoto del 30 ottobre 2016. La facciata sopra il colonnato è decorata con dei mosaici eseguiti fra il 1854 e il 1874 su cartoni di Filippo Agricola e Nicola Consoni che si ispirarono per quanto possibili a quello originale del X secolo. Il mosaico è suddiviso in tre fasce. In quella inferiore, su sfondo oro, alternati alle finestre sono raffigurati i quattro profeti dell'Antico Testamento: Isaia, Daniele, Geremia ed Ezechiele. Sopra di essi, prima del cornicione, vi è una fascia con l'Agnus Dei sul monte del paradiso da cui sgorgano i quattro fiumi simboleggianti i Vangeli, nei quali si dissetano dodici agnelli, che simboleggiano gli apostoli. Nel timpano triangolare, infine, vi è raffigurato Cristo benedicente posto in mezzo a San Paolo e San Pietro. Nel nartece, arricchito anch'esso, come gli altri tre lati del quadriportico, da marmi policromi nel rivestimento delle pareti, si aprono i cinque portali che permettono l'accesso alla basilica. Fra le porte, quella centrale, che è la più grande, risale al 1931 ed è opera di Antonio Maraini. Essa, alta 7,48 metri e larga 3,35 raffigura degli episodi della vita dei santi Pietro e Paolo ed è realizzata in bronzo e decorata da una croce realizzata con la tecnica dell'agemina in argento ed incrostata di lapislazzuli.
