Visit Piazza Navona Underground!
The ruins of the Stadium of Domitian (declared by the UNESCO World Heritage Site and subjected to indirect protection by Ministerial Decree of 7 April 1954) are located under Piazza Navona at about 4.50 meters from the road level; the archaeological area is all that remains of the first and only example of a masonry stadium known to date in Rome.
Exclusively a newly restored part of the Archaeological Area of the Domitian Stadium is open to the public for the first time. The visit of the two Archaeological Areas makes the history of Piazza Navona and the Stadium of Domitian on which it was built clearer and more complete.

First part of the tour where you see ruins that are partially visible from the street while listening to the audio guide is interesting. You can also pay additional 4€ for 3D “tour” of piazza navona and other monuments which i definitely recommend. But the second “exclusive” part of the tour was quite disappointing. What you see are mostly bricks, walls and few corridors, some empty spaces. We were not able to understand what are we looking at. It didn’t look like stadium (or its ruins) but more like random underground cellar. I wouldn’t recommend doing the second part. Spare the extra € for 3D “tour”.

Abbiamo partecipato in gruppo che consente di visitare lo stadio di Domiziano ubicato sotto piazza Navona. Un viaggio nel tempo imperdibile con l’audio guida che spiega tutti i punti di interesse.
Consigliato a tutti
