1. A long story that winds its way through the centuries: with its 2300 years of history, the Appia Antica shows intact the signs of an illustrious and fascinating past, still clearly visible among the ruins that line the sides of the road. Episodes of great history and daily life echo in this idyllic setting since the times of ancient Rome, in a continuous unfolding between the "dark ages" of the Middle Ages, passing through the Renaissance, up to the creation of the open-air museum wanted by Pope Pius IX in the mid-nineteenth century.

   Vorbeifahrt

2. You will have a privileged guided tour inside the Catacombs of St. Callixtus. The law of ancient Rome forbade, for sanitary reasons, to bury the dead within the city. The consular roads were lined with splendid sepulchres of patricians, who were generally cremated and whose ashes were preserved in urns. The first Christians, however, believing that they had to be ready for the resurrection, were buried without cremation in underground caves dug into the tuff. The dead were placed inside the loculi after being wrapped in two layers of cloth soaked in lye, to avoid the risk of contamination to the living.

About Rom

Rom schichtet fast dreitausend Jahre Geschichte in einer Stadt der kurzen Wege, vom Kolosseum und Forum bis zu Barockplätzen und Vatikankunst.

Das antike Rom liegt noch immer offen vor einem. Kolosseum, Forum Romanum und Palatin liegen gemeinsam im Herzen der Stadt, das Pantheon steht mit seinem offenen Opaion noch heute, und Reste von Tempeln und Aquädukten tauchen zwischen Wohnhäusern auf. Jenseits des Tibers birgt die Vatikanstadt den Petersdom, die Vatikanischen Museen und Michelangelos Deckenfresko in der Sixtinischen Kapelle.

Top-ranked sights in Rom: Colosseum, Vatican Museums, Sistine Chapel.
