Abellinum, Archaeological site in Atripalda, Italy.

The archaeological area contains three rows of ancient Samnite fortifications and Roman walls constructed with opus reticulatum along the Sabato River bank.

The Romans established Abellinum as a colony in 293 BC, later renamed to Veneria Abellinatium by Lucius Cornelius Sulla in 82 BC.

The excavations at Abellinum reveal a patrician residence of 2,500 square meters with Hellenistic-Pompeian decorations and numerous Roman furnishings.

Visitors can explore the site from Wednesday to Sunday between 9:00 AM and 3:00 PM, with an information point located at Via Manfredi in Atripalda.

A circular marble section from the forum, dedicated to Emperor Tiberius, is now displayed at the Irpinian Museum in the nearby city of Avellino.
