There is a hidden, ancient world in the heart of Pécs: the city's Roman past. The burial places of our Roman ancestors, underground burial chambers and tombs rest beneath the surface. Some of them are painted, and their interiors are decorated with biblical scenes and early Christian symbols. Part of this northern cemetery was added to the UNESCO World Heritage List in 2000.

During the tour, we will discover the above-ground and underground Roman world of the Early Christian cemetery.
