Villa De Sanctis, Urban park in Prenestino-Labicano district, Rome, Italy.
Villa De Sanctis extends across 13 hectares of land with Mediterranean vegetation including olive trees, cypress trees, poplars and English oaks throughout the grounds.
The area belonged to Elena, mother of Emperor Constantine, during Roman times and contained her mausoleum, which remains visible within the park boundaries.
The property contains the Catacombs of Saints Marcellinus and Peter, ranking as Rome's third largest underground burial network with numerous preserved frescoes.
The park opens daily from 9:00 AM to 11:00 PM, offering fitness equipment, a one-kilometer running track, and a dedicated area for dogs.
A sundial decorates the villa's external walls alongside marble fragments inscribed with ancient Roman texts, demonstrating the site's historical significance.
