Catacombs

Besides the excavations under St Peter’s, the city of Rome provides the pilgrim with the ability to experience early Christianity. The catacombs are early Christian burial grounds, which today serve as important sources of information regarding the life of the early Christian Church.

Today, pilgrims may visit many of the catacombs around the city of Rome and catch a glimpse of the early Church. Please visit http://www.catacombe.roma.it/ for more information
