Cento Camerelle, Archaeological site in Bacoli, Italy

The Centum Cellae complex contains multiple underground levels of water cisterns constructed at different periods in Roman architecture.

The maritime villa belonged to orator Quintus Hortensius Hortalus in the 1st century BC before becoming part of Emperor Nero's imperial domain.

The archaeological structure represents a major example of Roman hydraulic engineering with its interconnected chambers carved into volcanic rock.

The site remains closed to visitors pending completion of safety maintenance work under the supervision of Campania Archaeological Authority.

The water storage system includes two main cisterns from different periods: one from Augustus era and an older one from Republican times.
