Description
Take a step back in time into the innards of the Mamertine Prison and discover the history of this disturbing place. Skip the line and learn all about St. Peter and the fate of the doomed Roman emperors and kings with a special video guide. He may have been a saint, but Peter was not immune to prison. Once inside the prison, however, he is said to have gushed water from the rocks to baptize inmates, jailers and even visitors! Enjoy an educational video guide on the history of this fascinating part of Via dei Fori Imperiali, which is also the oldest prison in Rome.
