Sant'Alessandro
CatholicRoma, Lazio, Italy
The basilica and Catacombs of Sant' Alessandro is a single-level catacomb, located in the Sant'Alessandro area of Municipio IV on the outskirts of Rome. It was first built in the 7th century on the via Nomentana. It is dedicated to the martyr Alexander, as is known from an inscription inside the complex mentioning him alongside his companions Eventius and Theodolus - all three were probably martyred during the Diocletianic Persecution or in AD 116 under Trajan.
