Roman villa of Orfeo - Tridentum
Roman villa of Orfeo - Tridentum #1
Among the numerous remains of Tridentum, the Roman Trento, found by archaeologists, the Villa di Orfeo is a testimony of considerable interest. It is a rich house located outside the city walls. Built during the first century AD and inhabited until the third century AD, it is divided into two parts separated by an open space.
Of particular value is a large hall paved entirely with a precious polychrome mosaic depicting Orpheus enchanting the beasts with his music. The villa had numerous rooms, including a spa with a dressing room and room for the hot bath and a second room finely decorated in mosaic. It was also completed by gardens.
