Villa of the Quintilii, Roman villa on Via Appia Antica, Italy.
The Villa of the Quintilii is a large Roman residence on Via Appia Antica featuring thermal baths, courtyards, and formal rooms spread across the terrain between two ancient roads. The site displays multiple dwelling areas, storage spaces, and workshop facilities that reveal how such aristocratic properties were organized and used.
The property was built by two brothers who served as consuls in 151 AD and were among Rome's wealthiest aristocrats. In 182 AD a reigning emperor seized the estate and executed the owners to take control of their fortune and property.
The complex houses an Antiquarium displaying marble sculptures and architectural fragments unearthed during excavations. These objects reveal the craftsmanship and wealth that defined the daily life of Rome's richest families.
The site is accessible to visitors on most days and features some covered pathways and viewing areas for navigating the terrain. The various rooms, baths, and courtyards can be explored fairly freely with informational signage helping you understand what you see.
Excavations in 2018 uncovered the remains of a carefully designed wine production facility with marble-lined chambers and piping systems that moved wine directly from presses to underground cellars. This infrastructure revealed a highly specialized operation for wine making and storage on a significant scale.
