The Catacombs of Saint Sebastian were not only the original final resting place of its namesake, but also held the bodies of Saints Peter and Paul until the reign of Constantine. Visitors can walk through the tunnels and study the mosaics, mausoleums, and even ancient graffiti. Both Christians and Pagans were buried in these catacombs, making it unique in that aspect.
