![]() Aurelian Wall
(Sights & Activities - Historic Sites)
Piazza del PopoloRome 06-7014769
Description:
Built in the third century as part of Rome's defense system, this massive fortification wall is a must see. The wall was commissioned by the Emperor Aurelian after the city's previous structure was in ruins. The wall has undergone significant restoration, and the best-preserved gate is at the Appian Way. At Via Porta San Sebastiano 18 there is a small museum open Tuesday - Sunday, 9am-2pm.
