    Descend into the depths of Rome’s early history at the Mamertine Prison, also known as the Tullianum. This subterranean chamber, carved into the Capitoline Hill, was used as a high-security state prison during the Roman Republic and Empire. Explore its stone-built lower cell—where Saint Peter was said to be imprisoned—and the larger upper hall used for hearings. Atmospheric lighting and on-site information help bring to life tales of political prisoners, legendary saints, and ancient judicial practices. Ideal for history enthusiasts and spiritual travelers, this visit offers a poignant glimpse into the darkest corners of Roman heritage. The supplier will promptly send you an email with your entry ticket as soon as your reservation is confirmed. It is not possible to skip the security lines.
