Later proceed to The Catacombs which are spread over 17 kilometers of undergroundcaves, someofwhich are inaccessible. They are laid out on four levels – one on top of another. The catacombs of the Eternal City offer one of the most complete and eloquent pictures of the Christian community in Imperial Rome, and of Catholicism in the city between the

2nd and 9th centuries. Until the 2nd century, in fact, the early Christians didn’t have their own cemeteries but were buried alongside the pagans in communal burial grounds outside the city along the main consular roads. The Apostle Peter was buried on the Vatican hill and St. Paul along the road to Ostia. Transfer to your 4* Ripa Hotel.
