The Via Triumphalis was one of the most important roads of the ager Vaticanus at the foot of the Vatican Hill in Rome. It started on the right bank of the Tiber at the pons Neronianus (today Ponte Vittorio Emanuele II), led northwest over the Prati di Castello to the southern slope of the mons Marius and probably joined the Via Clodia at the farmstead of La Giustiniana. An extensive and well-preserved Roman necropolis, often referred to as the "Via Triumphalis necropolis", has been excavated along the line of the ancient road, within the confines of Vatican City.
