San Vittorino's Catacombs, built on the place where the saint was martyred, lie underneath the church dedicated to Saint Michael the Archangel and consist of six rooms dug in the rock, meant to contain the graves of the faithful. The main room contains the martyr's tomb, erected in the V century by order of the bishop Quodvultdeus who had a marble shrine built with materials from the archaeological site of Amiternum and contemporary marble carvings.
