Overview

Experience a unique opportunity in Rome during the Jubilee year, exclusively at the Catacombs of San Callisto, made possible by a special concession from the Vatican.

You will relive the dramatic moments of the early spread of Christianity through the chants of the early Christians, performed by our historically informed ensemble, dressed as they were in the early centuries of Christianity.
The concert will be held in the Tricora, a small basilica next to the entrance of the catacombs, reserved for our event.
The program includes sacred chants from the early centuries to the 16th century, featuring liturgical songs of the early Church and compositions by the Sistine Chapel's masters.

After the concert, you will be accompanied by an archaeologist into the catacombs in your preferred language (IT, EN, FR, DE, ES).

This unparalleled offering in Rome promises to move you with its spiritual depth and beauty, creating a cultural experience and a treasured memory of your visit.

What To Expect

Catacombs of Saint Callixtus

Along the ancient Appian Way, one of the most iconic and well-preserved roads of ancient Rome, you will find mausoleums and remnants from the imperial era, which we suggest you visit before or after the concert. In this area, you can also explore the famous underground catacombs, carved out by early Christians to escape persecution, celebrate liturgies, and bury their dead, including martyrs and popes. The Catacombs of San Callisto are the most famous and frequently visited in Rome, known for their extensive networks and multiple levels that reach up to 20 meters deep. The spaces were adorned with mosaics and frescoes, some of which are still visible today, such as in the crypt of Saint Cecilia, the patroness of music and singing, who was martyred under Emperor Domitian. After the concert, you will tour the Catacombs of Saint Callixtus together with a professional archeologist in the language you prefer (IT, EN, FR, DE, ES).
