Explore the Capuchin Crypts
Explore the Capuchin Crypts, where five chapels beneath the Church of Santa Maria della Concezione Cappuccini are adorned with the bones of Capuchin friars. Originally intended for burial, these crypts now serve as a powerful reminder of life’s transience. Discover eerie yet intriguing displays in chapels like the Crypt of the Skulls and the Crypt of the Leg Bones and Thigh Bones. It’s a unique and somewhat spooky experience!

Stretching about 5 miles, these catacombs, known as the “Queen of Catacombs,” served as burial sites and places of worship for early Christians. Accompanied by your guide, explore three distinct areas: the Acilii zone, the Greek Chapel, and the Arenario, where you’ll discover intriguing biblical-themed writings and art. The mystery of whether the catacombs truly contain the remains of St. Priscilla adds an extra layer of intrigue to your visit.
