Crypts ancient aqueducts and skeletons

Crypts ancient aqueducts and skeletons

An experience to learn about the true essence of Rome's underground areas. We will visit:

The Capuchin Crypt
A cemetery literally built from bones! The rooms are decorated with the remains of about 4,000 friars. The message at the end of the crypt reads: "What we were, you are now. What we are now, you will be."

The Virgin aqueduct
In Rome, as many as 11 aqueducts arrived, an enormous quantity that was equaled only in modern times.
We will take you to the basement of a shopping center to visit the ancient aqueduct and then we'll see where the water comes out, in the famous Trevi fountain.

The basement of the Basilica of San Nicola in prison
A secret place that few know. This delightful church was built in the 10th century on three temples dating back to the 1st century BC
Most of the original temples, including their marble columns, have been incorporated into the structure of the current basilica, but are still visible.
