Visit a Roman house

Wander through a beautiful Roman villa and see how wealthy Pompeian people lived at home. The rooms and objects in this life-like digital tour evoke the everyday, domestic lives of people living 2000 years ago. Some of the objects that you see in the House of the Vine are in the exhibition.

This video can also be viewed in the exhibition.
