Day trip to Alba Fucens

The ancient settlement of Alba Fucens dates back to the 4th C BC and is sited on a high plateau at 1020m. The outline of the city walls is still clearly visible covering a distance of approximately 3km.   Features that easily discerned include the polygonal construction of the walls, a line of three defensive walls which were probably built at a later date by the Romans and the numerous roads including the column lined Via dei Pilastri.   Alba Fucens is a must see!!
