House of the Ceii, Roman residential structure in Pompeii, Italy.

The House of the Ceii contains a four-column atrium with a fountain in the impluvium and features rooms adorned with Third Style paintings.

Excavated between 1913 and 1914, this residence belonged to magistrate Lucius Ceius Secundus, as evidenced by electoral inscriptions on its facade.

The interior walls display intricate frescoes depicting hunting scenes with wolves, tigers, and lions, representing Roman artistic preferences of the period.

The site opens daily from 9:00 AM to 7:30 PM during summer months and closes at 5:00 PM in winter, with entrance included in Pompeii archaeological park tickets.

The garden walls showcase Egyptian-style landscapes with Nile Delta animals, indicating possible connections between the house owner and the Isis cult.
