Fregellae, Archaeological site in Arce, Italy

The archaeological site spans a vast area along the Liri River, featuring remains of buildings, streets, and defensive structures from the Roman Republic period.

Founded in 328 BCE as a Roman colony, Fregellae served as a strategic outpost until its destruction in 125 BCE following a rebellion against Rome.

Excavations at the site uncovered a temple dedicated to Aesculapius, residential buildings, and evidence of wine production that reached Mediterranean trade networks.

The archaeological area contains a modern museum in Ceprano that displays artifacts, architectural fragments, and educational materials about the ancient city.

Recent investigations revealed a military camp measuring 143 by 90 meters, providing evidence of Roman siege tactics during the city's final battle.
