LATOMIA DEI CAPPUCCINI
Go there and contact
Large and deep garden with dense vegetation and a moving structure.
They extend to the northeast of the site and are among the most monumental and fascinating, with their dense vegetation and intricate structure. According to Maupassant, "the most curious of the latomies is undoubtedly that of the Capuchins, a vast, deep garden divided by vaults, arches and enormous rocks, and enclosed by white cliffs". Quarried for the construction of the new Neapolis district, these quarries probably date back to the5th century B.C. It was here that 7,000 Athenian prisoners were locked up, all of whom died of cold or disease.
