Casa di Cecilio Giocondo, Roman banker residence in Pompeii, Italy.

The Casa di Cecilio Giocondo features a traditional Roman layout with an atrium and peristyle, displaying architectural elements typical of wealthy residences.

The house contained 154 waxed tablets dating from 52 to 62 AD, documenting financial transactions including land sales, slave trades, and tax collections.

Two marble reliefs discovered in the house lararium depict the Temple of Jupiter and Castellum Aquae following the earthquake of 62 AD.

The archaeological site maintains different seasonal schedules, operating from 9:00 AM to 7:00 PM during summer months and 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM in winter.

The bronze portrait of Lucius Caecilius Iucundus, commissioned by his freedman Felix, reveals the physical appearance of this prominent Pompeian banker.
