Highlights

  • Escape Rome's hustle and bustle to explore Ostia Antica at your leisure.
  • Marvel at the well-preserved ancient structures, exquisite frescoes, and stunning mosaics within this archaeological site.
  • Discover shops, public baths, and a grand theatre that hosts events during summer.

Your Experience

Just 30km from Rome lies Ostia Antica, an expansive archaeological park covering 100 hectares. This former harbor city flourished in ancient times and was named after its proximity to the river Tiber ('os' means 'mouth' in Latin). However, as silting occurred during the 2nd century CE, it fell into disuse and neglect.

Your ticket grants access to explore numerous excavations within this well-preserved site. Highlights include a theatre, various houses, baths, temples, along with an array of mosaics and frescoes. If you're curious about the sea's absence during your visit, note that due to shifting coastlines, it now lies several kilometers away.
