An archaeological park reconstructed on the remains of a large Roman villa complex. The uniquely reconstructed villa gives an idea of ​​how privileged people lived at that time. Archaeologists are still at work digging and performing experimental archaeology to determine how Roman glass was made.
There is also a museum and a taberna serving Roman food.
