Activity itinerary

Villa dei Misteri

The villa is renowned for its remarkable frescoes that cover the walls of several rooms. These frescoes depict various scenes, including rituals, ceremonies, and myths associated with the cult of Dionysus, the Greek god of wine, fertility, and ecstasy.

1_Foro di Pompei

The Forum was a large, open rectangular space measuring about 38 by 142 meters. It was paved with stone and surrounded by a variety of important public buildings, temples, and statues.

Temple of Jupiter

The temple was originally dedicated to Jupiter, the chief god of Roman mythology, who was the god of the sky and thunder. Later, it became a Capitoline Triad temple, dedicated to Jupiter, Juno (his wife), and Minerva (the goddess of wisdom and war).

Basilica

In ancient Roman architecture, a basilica was a large public building typically used as a meeting hall, law court, or marketplace. The Basilica of Pompeii served as a gathering place for civic and commercial activities.

Santuario di Apollo

The temple was surrounded by a portico or colonnade, forming a peristyle that enclosed the sanctuary's courtyard. This provided a grand and formal setting for religious rituals and gatherings.

Lupanar

The Lupanare of Pompeii (also known as the Lupanar Grande) is one of the most famous structures in the ancient city. It was Pompeii’s main brothel and offers unique insights into Roman attitudes toward sexuality, social stratification, and everyday life in the 1st century CE.

Teatro Grande

The Teatro Grande could accommodate 5,000–6,000 spectators, making it a central venue for public entertainment in Pompeii.

Amphitheatre of Pompeii

The Amphitheater of Pompeii (Anfiteatro di Pompeii) is the oldest surviving stone amphitheater in the Roman world and one of the most remarkable structures in the ancient city. Built around 70 BCE, it predates the Colosseum in Rome by over a century and highlights the importance of public entertainment in Roman culture.

Villa di Giulia Felice

Is named after its owner, Julia Felix, whose name is inscribed on a property rental advertisement discovered during excavations. Julia Felix is believed to have been a wealthy and enterprising woman who capitalized on her property’s prime location and versatility.

Stabian Baths (Terme Stabiane)

The Stabian Baths are believed to be among the oldest baths in the Roman world, with their initial construction dating back to the Samnite period (before Roman control). Over time, the baths underwent significant renovations and expansions, particularly during the Roman period, incorporating advanced technologies for heating and water distribution.

Palestra Grande

The Palestra Grande (Large Palaestra) in Pompeii is an impressive public space designed for athletic training, exercise, and social activities. Its scale and architectural design highlight the Roman emphasis on physical fitness and community life.

Centauro di Igor Mitoraj

Is a specific sculpture by the Polish artist Igor Mitoraj that was exhibited in the ancient city of Pompeii. Mitoraj's sculptures often evoke classical themes and are known for their modern interpretations of ancient forms.

Torre de Mercurio XI

The Torre di Mercurio is thought to have been a multi-story structure, potentially including an upper level used for living quarters and a ground floor for commercial purposes, such as shops or workshops. It is situated at a strategic location, perhaps near crossroads or along a bustling street, underscoring its potential role in Pompeii's urban dynamics.

Casa del Fauno

The house is most famous for the bronze statue of a dancing faun, which was found in the impluvium (a basin to collect rainwater) of the Tuscan atrium. This statue, which gives the house its name, is a fine example of Hellenistic art.

House of the Dioscuri

The house is named after the Dioscuri, the twin brothers Castor and Pollux from Greek and Roman mythology. These mythological figures were considered protectors of sailors and were associated with strength, loyalty, and brotherhood.

Casa di Meleagro - Meleagri domus

The house features a well-preserved atrium with an impluvium at the center, surrounded by highly decorated walls and rooms. A large, elegant peristyle with a colonnaded courtyard is a highlight of the villa. This area would have been lush with plants and served as a serene setting for leisure and social gatherings.

House of the Vettii

The house is located in the Regio VI district of Pompeii. It is believed to have been owned by two freedmen, Aulus Vettius Conviva and Aulus Vettius Restitutus, based on inscriptions found in the house. Freedmen were former slaves who had gained their freedom and often became wealthy through trade or business.

House of Menander (Casa del Menandro)

Numerous artifacts were discovered, including a treasure hoard of over 100 silver items, including cups, plates, and bowls, found in a storage room.
