What you'll see
A 12th-century church with glittering apse mosaics. Underneath you can walk down into an earlier church and, below that, Roman rooms that include a shrine to the god Mithras.
A brief history
It's a three-layer site: the current basilica was built around 1100 on top of a 4th-century church, which was itself converted from a Roman nobleman's house. The lowest level sits on buildings destroyed in the Great Fire of AD 64.
