THE CRYPT OF THE POPES
It is the most important and venerated crypt of the cemetery, called "the little Vatican" as it was the official burial place of nine popes and, probably, of eight dignitaries of Rome's 3rd century Church.

Return to Castle Wolfenstein is the latest installment in the Wolfenstein series, which is part of a long and distinguished history. Released in 1992, Wolfenstein 3D wasn't the original first person shooter (experts say that an earlier game called Catacombs 3D, aka The Catacomb Abyss holds that title), but it is arguably the most influential and the first to gain widespread success. Return to Castle Wolfenstein puts you back in the combat boots of Captain William J. "B. J." Blazkowicz, Nazi fighter and super-agent. Much like last time, this game pits you against the supervillain, Himmler, who beleives himself to be the reincarnation of a rather nasty god. This unpleasant fellow is trying to use a blend of black occult magic and unrestrained scientific experiments to create an army of Nazi supersoldiers. As B.J. Blazkowicz, you try to use all your cunning and guns (lots of guns) to battle the Nazis and do your best to stall their rush for world domination.
