Palazzo a Mare, Archaeological site in Capri, Italy
The Palazzo a Mare complex stretches across multiple terraces on the northern coast of Capri, featuring Roman ruins and structural remains overlooking the Gulf of Naples.
Emperor Tiberius modified this imperial palace, originally built by Augustus between 27 and 37 AD, making it one of twelve documented Roman villas on the island.
The architectural elements of Palazzo a Mare, including the semicircular nymphaeum and opus reticulatum construction, demonstrate the engineering capabilities of ancient Roman builders.
The archaeological site remains open throughout the year, with guided tours providing detailed explanations of the Roman residential structures and their seaside location.
Sections of the original palace walls now rest underwater near the beach, as the structure extended from the cliffs down to the shoreline during Roman times.
