Discover the ancient ruins of Herculaneum on a fascinating audio tour at your own pace. Learn the history of the ancient and wealthy town buried by the eruption of Vesuvius in 79 AD.
Archaeological Site Of Herculaneum
Visit the ruins of Herculaneum! The Roman city of Herculaneum, destroyed and buried by the eruption of Vesuvius in 79 A.D., was brought back to the chronicles of history in the 18th century thanks to Bourbon explorations. Over time, the memory of the location of the ancient Roman city was lost, and it was not until 1710 that a farmer, Ambrogio Nucerino, digging a well to irrigate his vegetable garden, recovered many valuable marble fragments, which only later were understood to belong to the theater of the ancient city.
