Descend beneath St. Clement’s to see Rome’s history in layers, from medieval basilica to early-Christian church to a pagan Mithraic temple, all stacked underground.

Hosted entry to the functioning 12th-century basilica, known for its glittering golden mosaic apse.

Descend to the 4th-century basilica beneath it, with preserved frescoes and early Christian worship spaces.

Go further down to the Roman-era Mithraic temple, once used for clandestine pagan rites.

Follow the visit with a structured multilingual audioguide, explaining how each layer reflects a different era of Roman faith and society.
