Naples Underground, Underground archaeological site in Naples, Italy

The subterranean network extends 40 meters below Naples streets, featuring ancient tunnels, caves, cisterns, and water supply systems spanning 2 million square meters.

Greek settlers created the first underground quarries in the third century BC, extracting tuff blocks to construct the temples and walls of Neapolis.

The underground tunnels preserve graffiti, furniture, and artifacts from World War II when Neapolitans used these spaces as air raid shelters.

Tours operate Tuesday through Sunday for two hours, requiring visitors to navigate narrow passages and steep stairs through dimly lit tunnels.

The underground complex contains the remains of a Roman theater, war museums, wine cellars, and gardens maintained 40 meters beneath street level.
