Villa Romana di Patti

The Villa Romana di Patti extends across 20,000 square meters, featuring a central courtyard with a surrounding portico and residential areas along the perimeter.

The villa, constructed in the 2nd century AD, underwent major reconstruction in the 4th century and remained inhabited until the 10th century AD.

The peristyle mosaics contain square panels with laurel wreath designs, while the tri-apse room displays animal figures within octagonal medallions.

The site opens Tuesday through Sunday from 10:00 AM to 6:00 PM, with entrance fees of 4 euros for adults and 2 euros for reduced tickets.

The villa includes an apsidal hall oriented differently from the peristyle, suggesting its potential later transformation into a Christian church.
