Protestant Cemetery of Rome (Cimitero Acattolico di Roma)

Nestled behind high walls in the Testaccio district, the Protestant Cemetery of Rome, also known as Cimitero Acattolico di Roma, offers a serene and quiet space near the bustling city center. Established to provide a final resting place for non-Catholic residents, both Italian and foreign, the cemetery is renowned for its important tombs, including those of English poets John Keats and Percy Bysshe Shelley. Visitors can stroll through the well-maintained grounds, which feature rows of cypress trees and weathered gravestones, creating a contemplative and peaceful atmosphere.
