Catholic AnswerThere are many famous Churches in Rome named after various saints. Probably the most famous is St. Peter's Basilica in the Vatican. St. Peter, himself, is buried under the high altar. If you go to the Vatican, you are able to take a tour, which will take you downstairs, and you can actually look on St. Peter's tomb. St. Paul is buried in St. Paul-Outside-the-Walls Basilica. St. John Lateran is the Pope's Cathedral Church.
