Villa of the Sette Bassi

The Villa dei Sette Bassi extends across three hectares of land, featuring three main buildings, two bath complexes, and a large architectural garden with a hippodrome.

Constructed during the reign of Emperor Antoninus Pius between 134 and 161 AD, this residence grew through three building phases, each adding more luxurious elements.

The residential structures display the evolution of Roman architectural design, incorporating peristyle gardens, decorated rooms, and spaces for both public and private functions.

The archaeological site maintains regular visiting hours and can be reached via public transportation from central Rome, with the entrance located at the end of a tree-lined avenue.

Six marble sculptures originally from this villa currently reside in the British Museum, while the site itself receives water from the ancient Anio Novus aqueduct.
