Product Info

Embark on a journey through time to a sacred burial ground dating back to the Roman era. Marvel at the intricate tombs and ancient artifacts that whisper tales of the past. See the tombs of the rich families of knights who acquired the poorest tombs, now abandoned, converting them into luxury tombs, with sarcophagi and mosaics of a certain value.

Admire the remains of the Necropolis, offering visitors the opportunity to appreciate the many decorative elements: marbles, mosaics, stucco, and frescoes, which have recovered their splendor after recent restorations.

Learn about the history of the Vatican Necropolis and Via Triumphalis from your knowledgeable guide. Hear the stories of the past and the people who were buried here.

Due to the exclusivity of this tour, the Vatican reserves the right to close the site at short notice or to modify the entrance time.
In such cases, customers will be promptly informed of any changes. In the event of closure, the visit will be replaced with the Underground Basilica of Santa Maria Maggiore.
