Cemeteries Cimitero dei Cappuccini The Capuchin Cemetery is located near the Church of Santa Maria della Concepzione. It consists of four internal rooms which can be accessed through a corridor. In the rooms are placed the bones of 4000 friars who died in Rome in a period between 1500 and 1870. The bones are put in such a way as to form decorative elements, while there are also skeletons dressed in the dress of the friars.
Cemeteries Cimitero di Domitilla The Catacomb of Domitilla is among the largest cemeteries in Rome. Through a modern staircase you access a small Basilica dedicated to Saints Nereo and Achilleo. It consists of three naves, separated by two rows of four columns. The only column is decorated with the beheading of Achilleo. A 3rd century fresco depicting the Christ Good Shepherd is of great interest. It contains several paintings from the 3rd and 4th centuries, among which that of the Epiphany stands out.
