Tips

The monumental nymphaeum (sacred building dedicated to a nymph, generally placed near a fountain or a source of water) overlooking the Via Appia Antica was the real entrance to the villa of the Quintili: from here, in fact, through a door that stood between two columns gave access to the park. The changes undergone by the nymphaeum in medieval times transformed it into a small castle owned by the counts of Tusculum, who between the ninth and eleventh centuries were the lords of Lazio, and have completely changed its original appearance. Even today, however, you can see around the nymphaeum a wall on top of which was the aqueduct channel that fed the nymphaeum.
