The experience

Explore Rome's underground chapel crypts and see over 3,700 skeletons!

Rome has a skeleton or two in the closet. Buried beneath the unassuming architecture of the Santa Maria della Concezione dei Cappuccini, there's a spine-tingling spectacle!

Join an expert English-speaking guide and delve into a fascinating chapter of Rome's medieval history at the Capuchin Crypt. See the bones of almost 4,000 friars stacked into macabre chapel decorations.

This haunting and moving arrangement of human remains is a reminder of the fragile fleetingness of life, and is one of Rome's best-kept cultural secrets. Don't miss it!
