06-4871185
Description:
The crypt is one of the most interesting you'll ever see because the four chapels and their Baroque decor consist of the bones of 4000 friars. Yes - the walls, ceilings and chandeliers are decorated with skulls, bones and full skeletons. Work first began on the site in 1528 and was eventually completed in 1870. Not for the faint of heart. BUS: 52, 63, 116, 150 or 630. METRO: Barberini
