Schola Armaturarum Iuventutis Pompeianae, Archaeological site in Pompei, Italy
The Schola Armaturarum contains a large central hall with recessed walls that displayed military equipment and ceremonial decorations during Roman times.
Excavated between 1915 and 1916, this structure served as a gathering place for military associations before the eruption of Mount Vesuvius in 79 AD.
The walls feature painted military trophies and Latin inscriptions that demonstrate the connection between Roman society and martial organizations.
The site underwent extensive restoration work starting in 2015 following structural damage caused by heavy rainfall and geological instability in 2010.
The wooden barrier that originally closed the entrance hall was reconstructed based on imprints discovered in volcanic ash deposits.
