Pompei, Bed & Breakfast LEPANTO1

Pompeii is an ancient city built at the foot of Mount Vesuvius that flourished during the time of the Roman Empire. It was destroyed in 79 A.C. following the famous volcano eruption that covered the city with lava and ash. The first archaeological explorations took place in the first half of the 18th century. There were frequent excavations but they only became systematic and organized from 1860. It has been estimated that so far, roughly three fifths of the ancient urban area has been brought to light. One of the most important archaeological sites in the world, it offers a precise and complete picture of the urban planning and daily life of a Roman city.
