Insula Romana, Archaeological site in Piazza d'Aracoeli, Italy.

The Insula Romana extends across multiple floors, featuring remnants of ancient Roman residential architecture with preserved walls, doorways, and structural elements.

During the 2nd century AD, this apartment building housed approximately 380 residents, with shops on the ground floor and living spaces on upper levels.

The structure demonstrates Roman social hierarchy through its layout, with larger apartments on lower floors for wealthy tenants and smaller units above for working class families.

The archaeological site requires advance reservations for both individual visitors and groups, with guided tours available according to specified schedules.

The excavation of this residential complex in the 1930s required the dismantling and relocation of the Baroque church of Santa Rita da Cascia.
