Museum and Crypt of Capuchins FriarsExplore the Capuchin Crypts Nestled beneath the esteemed Church of Santa Maria della Concezione Cappuccini, lie five awe-inspiring chapels adorned with the bones of Capuchin friars. These friars were interred during a time when the Catholic Church permitted burial beneath its sacred grounds. The Capuchin Crypts, although not initially intended as macabre art, serve as a poignant symbol of mortality and the journey of life through the earthly realm. With the added advantage of bypassing queues, you will have the privilege of exploring all five chapels: the Crypt of the Resurrection, the Crypt of the Skulls, the Crypt of the Pelvises, the Crypt of the Leg Bones and Thigh Bones, and the Crypt of the Three Skeletons. This chilling yet captivating display awaits your up-close encounter, offering a truly fascinating experience.
- Pass by the Via Appia Antica & The Aurelian Walls on your way back to the center of Rome. During the third century, Emperor Aurelian took measures to safeguard Rome from invading barbarians by constructing a defensive wall encircling the city. As you embark on your journey, you'll have the opportunity to observe the impressive Aurelian Walls up close from the comfort of your climate-controlled vehicle. In addition, you'll marvel at a small portion of the ancient Appian Way, a historically significant Roman road that stretches all the way to Puglia in Southern Italy. The Appian Way holds great historical significance, having been the site of the crucifixion of 10,000 slaves during the famous revolt led by Spartacus. Rest assured, you won't witness any such grim scenes today, but your guide will vividly recount the tale, bringing it to life before your eyes. Prepare to be enthralled by the narrative and immerse yourself in the rich history that unfolds along this ancient road. (pass by)
