Juvanum

Juvanum is an archaeological site in Montenerodomo with ruins from Roman times, including a forum, temple, and basilica. The exposed walls and buildings spread across a larger area and allow visitors to explore the remains of an ancient settlement.

The site was originally a settlement of the Caraceni tribe before becoming a significant town during the Roman period. Its development into a Roman city shows how conquests and conflicts of that era shaped the region.

The excavated structures show how people lived here, with houses and public spaces that reflect daily life in an ancient community. You can see how Romans built their towns and which spaces mattered to them.

The site is accessible and ideal for visitors who want to take time to walk among the ruins and explore different areas. It helps to come with proper footwear and sun protection, as you will spend much time outdoors.

Excavation teams continue to work at the site and regularly uncover new artifacts and structures, constantly revealing fresh insights into how people lived here. These ongoing efforts make a visit special, as much remains yet to be discovered about this place.
