Get to know an ancient Roman monumental Nymphaeum in Segni, Italy.

Opening of The Nymphaeum of Quintus Mutius to the public in the town of Segni. Considerations and preservation for future research. This monumental fountain has played a pivotal role since its discovery and first publication in 1995. Due to an excavation, restoration and conservation project, between the British School at Rome in partnership with the Comune di Segni, much has happened.  

The nymphaeum is located within an area of ca. 3,800 square meters. The archaeological site is now part of the cultural heritage to visit in the town of Segni, the Porta Saracena, the Temple complex of Juno Moneta and the monumental polygonal walls.

"Without #Sicily, Italy creates no image in the soul: here is the key to everything [...] The purity of the outlines, the softness of everything, the yielding changing of the colours, the harmonious unity of the sky with the sea and the sea with the earth ... who has only seen them once, will own them for a lifetime. " (J.W.Goethe, “Viaggio in Italia”, 1817)
