Inside of Civitavecchia there are 2 cemeteries, one new building and one considered a real monumental cemetery, called “old cemetery”.

The most interesting of which we will talk about is the “old cemetery” which is an early example of cemeteries outside the city walls. Is located on the via Aurelia and you can get there by bus or, for those who enjoy a walk starting from near the center of Civitavecchia, even walk.

Was realized in the first half of 1800.

One of the most important artistic present inside, and the “Temple of San Lorenzo” which it was built from 1806.

Inside, not only can you explore a sacred place, but also different cultural views; in fact there are the French and the Jewish cemetery where you can admire works fascinating and important spiritual significance.

Given the increase of buildings in the surrounding area of the cemetery, It was no longer possible to enlarge its surface, for which it is provided following the construction of the “new city cemetery” It located on the outskirts of the city of Civitavecchia called Saint Lucia.
