Hi All,
Does the Mouth of Truth still could be visited on 25th Dec as it's in the portico of St Maria Cosmedin which is a minor basilica and I believe would be closed on 25th Dec?

The website says the winter hours are 9:30-5:00 and doesn't note any closed days.

Even if the portico is locked, you can still get a good view of Bocca della Verita through the iron fence. This photo was taken from outside after hours, through the bars.
