Pompeii

Pompeii is one of the most significant proofs of Roman civilization and, like an open book, provides outstanding information on the art, customs, trades and everyday life of the past.
The city has re-emerged from the darkness of centuries precisely as it would have been when it was unexpectedly buried in the thick layer of ash and lava which poured down from the devastating eruption of Vesuvius. It was the year 79 A.D.
Pompeii is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and is one of the most popular tourist attractions in Italy, with approximately 2.5 million visitors annually.

Vesuvius

Mount Vesuvius, active volcano near Naples, famous for its eruption in AD 79 that destroyed the Roman cities of Pompeii, Stabiae, and Herculaneum, is one of only two active volcanoes in Continental Europe and stands about 1281 meters tall, with a symmetrical central cone and steep slopes.
Vesuvius has a long historic and literary tradition. It was considered a divinity at the time of the eruption of AD 79.
The area around Vesuvius was officially declared a national park on June 5, 1995. The summit of Vesuvius is open to visitors.

Herculaneum

The Archeological site of Herculaneum (in Italian: Scavi di Ercolano) is the area south of the town centre of modern Ercolano where the Roman town of Herculaneum has been excavated.
Herculaneum was destroyed and buried by lava and mud during the eruption of Mt. Vesuvius in AD 79 together with Pompeii, Stabiae and Oplontis.

National Archaeological Museum, Naples

The National Archaeological Museum of Naples hosts extensive collections of Greek and Roman antiquities. Their core is from the Farnese Collection, which includes a collection of engraved gems (including the Farnese Cup, a Ptolemaic bowl made of sardonyx agate and the most famous piece in the “Treasure of the Magnificent“, and is founded upon gems collected by Cosimo de’ Medici and Lorenzo il Magnifico in the 15th century) and the Farnese Marbles. Among the notable works found in the museum are the Herculaneum papyri, carbonized by the eruption of Mount Vesuvius, found after 1752 in Villa of the Papyri.

National Museum of Capodimonte

In Naples you can visit Museo Capodimonte, located in the Capodimonte royal park. There’s a permanent exhibition of ancient art, one of contemporary art and an historical apartment. It’s one of the most important museum institutions in Europe, with an exhibition area of 15.000 square meters and patrimony of 47.000 works from XIV until nowadays.
