Tour of the villas of Stabia

Tour of the villas of Stabia

The present town of Castellammare di Stabia was once a favorite destination of the Roman patriciate, who chose this plateau overlooking the sea as an ideal place to have their own otium villa built. Even today, although little known, some of these beautiful dwellings, partly incorporated in the modern town, are preserved almost intact. We will visit the luxurious Villa San Marco, articulated on different levels and equipped with private baths where the owner could spend moments of leisure in the company of his guests. We will then proceed towards Villa Arianna with the adjacent Secondo Complesso, unique in its kind for the exceptional quality of the frescoes and its considerable size.
