Pompeii Archaeological Park
The ruins of Pompeii are a vast archaeological site in the southern Campania region, near the coast of the Gulf of Naples. Once a thriving and sophisticated Roman city, Pompeii was buried under meters of ash and pumice after the catastrophic eruption of Vesuvius in 79 A.D. The preserved site features remains of excavated streets and houses that visitors can freely explore.

Tempio di Giove Capitolino
The Temple of Jupiter dominates the northern side of the Forum, and behind it stands scenographically the Vesuvius. With the deduction of the colony (80 BC) the temple was the subject of a radical remaking and became a real Capitolium, with three statues of worship of Jupiter, Juno and Minerva, imitating those of the Capitolium of Rome, placed on a high base, So that they are visible to those who passed through the square of the Forum.

Macellum

Stabian Baths (Terme Stabiane)
The Stabiane Baths were built at various times. The initial phase of construction dates back to IV a.c. (the gym with the trapezoid base). The baths that we can admire today were built in the II sec a.c., a period when Pompeii was subjected to a major renovation.
In the spa, not only did you take a bath, but you also discussed politics, battles, trials, women.... It was the town hall where the facts of the day were discussed.
