Mausoleum of the Conocchia, Roman mausoleum in Curti, Italy.
The Mausoleum of the Conocchia features eleven niches designed to hold funeral urns, with a cubic base and intermediate convex structure topped by a tholos.
The monument underwent restoration work during the reign of Ferdinand IV of Bourbon, with architect Carlo Vanvitelli modifying parts of the original structure.
Local tradition suggests that Flavia Domitilla, niece of Emperor Vespasian who faced persecution for her Christian faith, rests within this burial chamber.
The funerary monument stands along the ancient Via Appia, with its exact location marked by coordinates 41.0778°N and 14.2786°E in Curti.
The structure received its name from its resemblance to a conocchia, a traditional spinning tool used in textile production.
