Nero's villa in Anzio: collapse and decay.


Bad weather and heavy swells caused a large cliff block to fall in the area of Nero's Villa in Anzio. The archaeological site has long been in disrepair.

Bad weather and strong sea storms in recent days have caused a collapse at the Villa of Nero in Anzio, on the Latium coast.
A large block of cliff supporting the walls collapsed, damaging the archaeological remains.

For passersby there was no danger, as the collapse occurred within the fence of the archaeological site, but unfortunately the situation is not the best.

The complex has long been in a condition of severe degradation: in the summer there are even piles of abandoned garbage or improvised encampments that are dismantled.

It was in this very place that theApollo of Belvedere and the Maiden of Anzio were found in the past.
