House of the Silver Wedding, Ancient Roman domus in Pompeii, Italy
The residence features four tall Corinthian columns in the atrium, supporting a roof with palmette antefixes and lion-headed gutter spouts.
The house remained buried under volcanic ash from Mount Vesuvius eruption in 79 AD until its excavation between 1891 and 1893.
The residence belonged to Lucius Albucius Celsus, a member of Pompeii's aristocracy, as evidenced by graffiti and inscriptions found within.
The structure includes two gardens, a central pool, a bath house with heated tubs, an outdoor swimming pool, and multiple living quarters.
The name originates from King Umberto I and Queen Margherita's visit during their 25th wedding anniversary celebration in 1893.
