The catacombs of Venice were a series of underground tombs and graves that lay under the buildings and canals of Venice, Italy. Over centuries, a maze of passageways was carved out as space for the dead was needed. Started by pagans, the catacombs were expanded by Christians. As the city above began to sink, some of the catacombs became flooded with oil and water.
