About

A curious miracle took place in this hidden alley near Rome's first theater.

If you look closely, you can trace the theater’s shape by observing the sequence of the buildings on the road. Passetto del Biscione is a tiny alley with a remarkable story. It was most likely named after the eel, the heraldic symbol of the Orsini family who built their palace over the ruins of Rome’s first theater.
