Get Item in Sitecore MVC by its path

I have created a Web rendering and try to get a specific Item by its path.

Something like this :

Item item=Sitecore.Context.Database.GetItem("/sitecore/content/home");

Is it possible to get item using @Model.Sitecore() ?

Thanks

I don't recommend it, but you can just get it in your view with @{ }

@{
    var item = Sitecore.Context.Database.GetItem("/sitecore/content/home");
}

You should really move to a Sitecore controller rendering and do this work in the controller and return the Item as your model.

public class YourController : Controller
    { 
        public ActionResult Stuff()
        {
            var item = Sitecore.Context.Database.GetItem("/sitecore/content/home");

            return View(item);
        }
    }

Your view

@model Sitecore.Data.Items.Item

<div>
    @Model.DisplayName
</div>
