  • Join an expert guide to explore the Catacombs of San Sebastiano, once used as a quarry for pozzolana and known as Ad Catacumbas
  • See the Mausoleums of the Innocentiores and of the Axe, characterized by elegant stucco decorations around the Basilica
  • See the richly decorated rooms that house the tombs of the martyrs, who had devoted pilgrims flocking there during the Middle Ages

On this expertly guided tour of the Catacombs of San Sebastiano, you'll experience the full beauty, faith and memory of the catacombs, created between the end of the second and the beginning of the third century AD. The space was used for burial and funeral commemorations in the Christian community, but before that, it was a pozzolana quarry.

Find out exactly why the Catacombs of San Sebastiano are not sad, dark slums, but are instead a secret world that inspired many pilgrims to flock here in the Middle Ages.

Muy bien. La guía fue Kelly, y nos lo explicó todo genial. Resolvió las dudas de los visitantes. No van a ver huesos, pero son unas catacumbas especiales al ser tipo laberinto y no espina. Recomendable. Podeis en autobús, nosotros fuimos en bici (lime), un trozo tuvimos que empujarla porque se bloquea la zona.
