Quick Answer

The entrance is at Via Capodimonte 13, beside the Basilica Madre del Buon Consiglio. Take a taxi or bus toward Capodimonte, or walk up through Rione Sanità.

The San Gennaro Catacombs sit on the slope of Capodimonte hill in Naples' Rione Sanità neighbourhood. The entrance is at Via Capodimonte 13, next to the Basilica Madre del Buon Consiglio.

By taxi

A taxi from central Naples is the quickest option and avoids the climb. Ask for the Catacombe di San Gennaro on Via Capodimonte.

By bus

City buses serve the Capodimonte area. Check the current routes and stops with the local transport operator before you travel, as services change.

On foot

Walking through Rione Sanità is rewarding but hilly, with narrow streets. Allow extra time and wear comfortable shoes.
