Catacombs of Domitilla

The Christians met in the catacombs to celebrate the commemorative day of notable members of their community: there is no real historical foundation for the belief that they frequently sought refuge in the catacombs to escape persecution. In the Catacombs of Domitilla is the basilica of SS. Nereus and Achilleus, an underground church of highly impressive effect with its columns and marble fragments. From the basilica visitors enter the catacomb passages with their tomb chambers and wall recesses. There are well-preserved wall paintings on Christian themes.
