About Pompejanum

The Pompejanum (or Pompeiianum) is an idealised replica of a Roman villa, located on the high banks of the river Main in Aschaffenburg, Bavaria, Germany. It was commissioned by King Ludwig I and built in the 1840s. The villa is a replica of a domus in Pompeii, the so-called House of Castor and Pollux (Casa dei Dioscuri).
