Roman villa that dates back to first century C.E. It is a large structure that had two floors and more than fifteen rooms. The upper floor was intended for residential use, where both the owners and the servants lived, while all the activities related to the cultivation of the surrounding fields were carried out on the ground floor. Archaeological excavation is still on going on the site.
