Catacombs of San Gaudioso

Flash photography

Flash use is restricted in the catacombs. Staff may enforce rules on flash during the visit, and any area-specific instructions will be given by your guide on-site. Follow all signage and guide directions while underground.

Outside food and drinks

Eating and drinking are generally not allowed inside the catacombs. Finish food and beverages before descending, as staff may enforce this rule during informal bag checks and throughout the guided visit.

Guests on a wheelchair

The underground catacombs are generally not accessible for wheelchair users. Access involves staircases, and no documented step-free route to the underground areas is available.

Guests with mobility issues

Visitors with mobility issues may find the route difficult or unsuitable. The catacombs include stairs, uneven floors, narrow passageways, and low ceilings, so anyone who cannot comfortably manage these conditions should avoid the underground tour.

Sleeveless top

Covered shoulders are strongly recommended because the catacombs are entered through an active church. Avoid sleeveless tops to respect the religious setting, even though detailed enforcement rules are not clearly published.

Above knee-length skirt/dress

Clothing that leaves the knees exposed is discouraged when visiting through the basilica. Skirts or dresses above the knee may be considered inappropriate for this religious site, so modest attire is recommended.

Shorts

Shorts are discouraged because the visit begins inside an active basilica where modest dress is strongly recommended. Choose clothing that covers the knees to match the site's religious context.
