Step into Rome’s ancient underworld

Journey beneath the surface of Rome to the Catacombs of St. Callixtus—a sacred burial network shrouded in history. Dating as far back as the second century, these catacombs are among the city’s most important archaeological sites, extending for nearly 19 kilometers underneath the historic Via Appia Antica. Join a knowledgeable guide as they lead you through the maze of dimly lit passages, sharing in-depth history, spiritual insights and stories of the people who once walked these corridors.

Discover the 'Little Vatican'

The Catacombs of St. Callixtus have earned the nickname 'Little Vatican', being the final resting place for 16 popes and numerous early Christian martyrs. Your guide will explain the customs, symbolism and artistry found on the tombs and chambers. As you move deeper, see the transition between simple burial niches and elaborate family crypts, reflecting both changing beliefs and social standing within the early Christian community.

Art and symbolism underground

These tunnels are not just burial sites—they’re galleries of ancient art. Pause before well-preserved frescoes depicting biblical scenes, cryptic inscriptions and intricate carvings that offer insight into faith, persecution and hope during the early centuries of Christianity. Have your attention drawn to key details by your guide, who reveals the stories and meanings behind these historical expressions.

The Crypt of St. Cecilia

A highlight of your visit is the famed Crypt of St. Cecilia. This chapel is dedicated to the patroness of music, adorned with evocative reliefs and mosaics. The statue of St. Cecilia, representing her martyrdom, serves as both a memorial and inspiration for visitors today.

Navigate the depths with an expert guide

Throughout your exploration, your guide’s expert commentary will bring past centuries to life, uncovering the challenges faced by early Christians and the evolution of their burial and artistic traditions. Whether you’re interested in archaeology, religious history or simply wish to see a different side of Rome, this guided adventure underground is an unforgettable experience.
