Sounds like an inaccurate map - when you wrote "...leaves both the
Teutonic College (the L-shaped building between the Audience Hall and

looking it was a bad border graphic - the "Campo" is exterritorial
German land that I know is surrounded by Vatican territory. See
illustration in our Photos library.
