Delve into the Catacombs of San Gennaro
Learn about the history of the underground paleo-Christian burial place and the patron saint of Naples from your guide in Italian or English. Be amazed by the baptismal font ordered by Bishop Paul II. Visit the upper catacomb, which is styled after Pompeii and contains some of the earliest Christian paintings. Admire breathtaking frescoes that date back to the 9th to 10th centuries AD. Take in the rare murals from the Crypt of the Bishops, one of which features Saint Quodvultdeus, the Bishop of Carthage.
Discover the Catacombs of San Gaudioso
On your visit to the catacombs, see the burial place of Gaudiosos of Naples. Admire frescoes dating back to the 5th and 6th centuries. Witness the unique graves reserved for nobles that date back to the 17th century, when the catacombs once again served as a reburial place.
