Description

The Papal Basilica of Saint Peter in the Vatican (Latin: Basilica Sancti Petri), officially known in Italian as Basilica Papale di San Pietro in Vaticano and commonly known as Saint Peter's Basilica. The Vatican Necropolis lies under Vatican City below Saint Peter's Basilica. Unearthed in 2003 during construction of a parking lot, the Necropolis opened to the public in 2006. Burials include members of upper class Romans as well as simple artisans with symbols of their trade by their side.
