TSEBA


TEMPLE OF SAN SEBASTIANO

Ticket office

Visits to the Temple are managed by the staff of Palazzo San Sebastiano, so visitors must go to the pertinent ticket office. The reception desk is high for a person in a wheelchair, but members of staff have been trained to cope with everyone’s needs.

Entrance to the building

The space in front of the Temple is cobbled making it hard to negotiate.

The entrance to the main hall of the Temple is via a steep staircase of about 20 steps. There is no real handrail, apart from the wide parapets at the sides. The stairs are damaged and uneven.

Access to the lower crypt is via two steps, but there is no handrail.
