The layer of membranes surrounding the heart is named pericardium. The heart is covered by a layer of epithelial cell membrane called pericardium( peri: around, cardium: heart Greek ).

There is some amount of fluid present between these layers which help for smooth movement during the movement of the heart( which moves a lot). This fluid is known as the pericardial fluid.
