The Tulliano Prison, also known as Carcere Mamertino, is the oldest prison in Rome, located for its historical importance in the heart of the city, near the Via Sacra nel Foro. Overlooking of the Roman Forum, it has been one of the most precious architectural and historical treasures of the Capital for more than 3,000 years. Dating back to the Republican age, it witnessed the incarcerations of the main enemies and traitors of the Roman people, as well as of many illustrious prisoners and important figures linked to the Christian events of Ancient Rome.
