À propos de cette activité
Peu d’endroits à Rome sortent des sentiers battus, alors nous allons sous terre pour assister aux merveilles de la voie ancienne appienne.
Les catacombes de Saint-Callixte font partie du complexe appelé Callistian, une zone d’environ 30 hectares entre la Via Appia Antica, la Via Ardeatina et la Via delle Sette Chiese, à Rome, qui abrite diverses aires funéraires et catacombes
Ce circuit vous emmène à travers le parc régional de l'Ancienne Voie Appienne, l'une des plus grandes aires urbaines protégées d'Europe. Vous plongerez dans l'histoire de l'Ancienne Voie Appienne, une voie romaine du IVe siècle avant J.-C., longue de plus de 500 km qui reliait Rome à Brindisi, au sud de l'Italie.
Une pause bien méritée à côté de la Voie Appienne vous attend pour déguster un savoureux déjeuner le matin ou un apéritif près du Parc des Aqueducs l'après-midi.

Appian Way and Aurelian Walls
An imposing southern gateway to the city of Rome. The Porta di San Sebastiano, part of the Aurelian Walls built around 275 AD, also marks the beginning of the historic Via Appia Antica. Be enchanted by its beauty and discover the numerous medieval graffiti that testify to the flow of pilgrims over the centuries.
Visit to the official funerary complex of the Church of Rome. The largest underground cemetery in the city with corridors that reach a length of about 20km. The catacombs of St. Callixtus, a sacred place dating back to the second century BC, take their name from the deacon Callixtus I. More than 50 martyrs and 16 popes and half a million Christians were buried here.
This majestic mausoleum is a pagan tomb dedicated to Cecilia Metella, dating back to the 1st century BC. Incorporated into the Castrum Caetani, it remains the best preserved mausoleum on the Via Appia Antica. Here you can also appreciate the remains of the medieval house of the wealthy Caetani family and the church of San Nicola of which only the perimeter walls remain standing
