Overview

We will take you for a ride as if you were participating in a study campaign. You will try to be a researcher and you will discover how many apparently invisible elements will allow you to understand the history lived by the people, by the slaves, by the workers.

You'll see how these environments, built by the ancient Romans, have been used up to the present day.

first as quarries to take the building material, then as catacombs to bury the dead and finally, today, to grow mushrooms.

a unique, original experience ... not to be missed.
