About the museum

The villa dates to the Roman period and was inhabited through several building phases; it is identified as the property of the poet Horace (Quintus Horatius Flaccus). The complex comprises a residential sector, a large courtyard with a colonnaded portico, a thermal complex and a garden.

The finds from the excavations are kept in the small Antiquarium di Licenza. Since 1 June 2018 the villa has not been open to the public on a continuous basis; it can only be visited by compulsory reservation. On special occasions, such as the European Heritage Days, the site is opened on an extraordinary basis.
