Catacombs of San Gaudioso
Beneath Santa Maria della Sanità, these catacombs offer a smaller, distinct underground route. Their burial spaces and later history make a useful companion to San Gennaro.
San Gaudioso places the Sanità district’s layered history directly below a working church. The guided circuit brings you close to burial chambers and their decoration, while the location ties the visit to the neighborhood above. It deserves its own slot even if you have already seen the larger San Gennaro complex.
What to look for
Burial chambers beneath the church
Decoration linked to the site’s long use
Useful to know
Locate the entrance at Santa Maria della Sanità, not at San Gennaro.
