Regio V

Vesuvius Gate

It was one of the main gates of the city, already damaged by the 62 A.D. earthquake and under reconstruction at the moment of the 79 A.D. eruption that buried Pompeii. Along the west side there is a line of the pre-Samnite fortification of the city, of which there have been found traces even at Herculaneum Gate. Close to the door, a building was destined to divide and to direct waters flowing from the Augustan aqueduct of Serino.
