Alba Fucens, located in the province of L'Aquila, Italy, is a significant archaeological site that was once a major Roman colony. Despite only a small portion of the city being excavated, it is considered one of the most important Roman sites in Central Italy. Often referred to as the "Pompeii of Abruzzo," Alba Fucens features impressive remains such as a magnificent amphitheater, thermal baths, a basilica, a sanctuary dedicated to Hercules, tabernae, and several domus. Visitors can also admire the Romanesque church of San Pietro, which incorporates a temple from the 3rd century BC. The city's name is linked to its proximity to Lake Fucino, which was drained in the 19th century through a tunnel constructed by Prince Alessandro Torlonia. Today, the Fucino Space Center, the largest civilian telecommunications station in the world, is located in the fertile plain that was once the lakebed. Alba Fucens is a fascinating destination for history enthusiasts and offers a glimpse into the ancient Roman world.
