Warteschlange Überspringen - Catacombs of Domitilla

The Catacombs of Domitilla are not the most visited in Rome, but remain some of the most important. Some of the rooms are richly decorated, others house the tombs of the martyrs who, during the Middle Ages, attracted the devotion of numerous pilgrims. This sprawling underground Christian cemetery is named after the Domitilla family, who ordered them to be dug. The Catacombs of Domitilla are situated over 16 meters underground, about two kilometers from the south of Appia Antica, and span 15 kilometers in distance beneath the streets of Rome.
