The large archaeological complex, discovered between 2020 and 2022 along the Via Cassia (km 11+700) at the gates of Rome, is now open to the public for free. Along a pedestrian walkway across the excavations, visitors will be able to admire an extraordinary archaeological area of over a thousand years, from the Etruscans period to the era of the Roman Imperial Republic.
The path leads to a funerary chamber equipped with over sixty vases and then to a post station with a thermal system, powered by a network of underground water tunnels, and to a stretch of paved road. Several testimonies from a complex stratification of ages in a one-hectare area beneath a modern petrol station have been found, and enhanced thanks to the “Soprintendenza Speciale Roma”.
Free entrance, no reservation needed.
