Antium, Titular see in Italy
Antium is a titular see in Anzio, Italy that came into existence in 1969.
Though the modern Antium was established in 1969, its ancient roots date back centuries, serving as an influential port and fortress for the Volscian people, predating Roman civilization.
Today, Antium embodies the mixture of ancient and contemporary culture present in Anzio, providing a fascinating insight into Italian history.
Visitors can reach Anzio from Rome, making it a popular day-trip destination for individuals interested in exploring not only Antium but also the city's famous beaches and local cuisine.
Unlike other tituli, Antium remained a residential bishopric until the Frankish invasion in the late 8th century.
