Naples Herculaneum Archaeological Site Admission Ticket

A City Discovered in Vesuvius,
The Beauty of Herculaneum

Herculaneum was buried by the eruption of Mount Vesuvius in 79 AD, along with Pompeii, after suffering heavy damage from the earthquake in 63 AD. It is presumed to have been founded by Greek colonists, and when it was discovered in the 18th century, it was so well preserved for an ancient city that it was listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

Vividly Experience the Greek City Style

When Vesuvius erupted, Pompeii was quickly buried in ashes, but Herculaneum was destroyed by volcanic ash and rocks that fell relatively slowly. This preserved many things, including the marble in the baths, intact furniture, and even clothing. As a result, you can experience an almost perfect Roman era in Herculaneum.

Experience History in Ancient Beauty

Herculaneum is called the jewel of Italy, where you can escape from the modern city and enjoy a historical journey. Relax in the shadow of Mount Vesuvius and admire the city's rich heritage. Don't forget to see the Palestra, where there was a huge statue of Hercules! You will be able to enjoy an intense ancient historical experience and a beautiful city.
