Vulci archaeological park

The remains of the Archaeological Park testify to the incredible grandeur of the city of Vulci, which once dominated the Maremma. The remains of the ancient walls testify to the advanced engineering of the Etruscans, and the mastery with which they were able to build their works.

One of the park’s major attractions is the Devil’s Bridge, an ancient structure that crosses the Fiora river. Legends and popular stories intertwine around this work, which in its long history has seen many civilizations pass over its pavement: from the Etruscans, who were responsible for its first construction, to the Romans, who strengthened its pillars.

There are also numerous Etruscan tombs scattered along the paths of the park, silent testimony to the importance of the cult of death in Etruscan civilisation.

Finally, the Archaeological Park of Vulci hosts a Museum which contains a vast collection of archaeological finds. Precious artefacts, such as ceramics, jewelery and statues, which have been recovered during excavations over the years are displayed here.

The Archaeological Park of Vulci is a treasure to be discovered, a window into the past that will allow you to get closer to one of the most fascinating civilizations of antiquity.

Get ready for an extraordinary journey through time at the Vulci Archaeological Park!
