Hypogeum of via Livenza, Underground archaeological site in Pinciano district, Rome, Italy.
The elongated structure contains a main apsidal hall with three adjacent arches, marble columns, and a rectangular water basin with drainage system.
Construction of this underground complex dates to the fourth century CE, and its discovery occurred in 1923 during building excavations.
The walls display frescoes combining pagan themes, including Diana with deer, and Christian imagery such as doves drinking from a water pitcher.
Visitors need advance reservations through the 060608 service, with access limited to groups of ten people accompanied by certified guides.
Natural spring water flows beneath the structure, influencing both its architectural design and the water-themed decorative elements throughout the space.
