Teatro Romano - Volterra

Photo Gallery

Welcome

The archaeological area of Vallebuona is one of the most important sites where it is possible to understand the urban and historic evolution of Volterra. It is a large space on the southern peaks of Volterra, just beyond the wall that enclosed the medieval city.i

This area was not occupied in the Etruscan era, but there was only work for containment of the soil, which was very steep. The area was affected in the Roman era by intense urbanisation activities, with the construction of a large monumental complex composed of a theatre and a thermal facility, built in different periods, the ruins of which it is possible to visit today.
