Lavinium, Archaeological site in Pratica di Mare, Italy
Located south of Rome, the ruins of Lavinium extend across fields, featuring ancient walls, temple foundations, and structural remains of urban planning.
Founded after the fall of Troy, Lavinium became a vital Latin settlement established by Aeneas upon his arrival on Italian shores in ancient times.
The archaeological museum at Lavinium exhibits artifacts and multimedia presentations that document the religious practices and daily routines of early Latin inhabitants.
Visitors can reach the archaeological complex through guided tours departing from Pratica di Mare, with excavation areas open for educational purposes.
The pentagonal castle built over the ancient acropolis incorporates original architectural elements preserved through multiple restoration phases across centuries.
