About this tour

L'Flavian Amphitheater is one of the two amphitheaters that can be admired in Pozzuoli and is one of the main attractions of the Phlegrean city. To visit it, we offer this guided excursion inside that will take you back two thousand years.

This imposing structure dates back to the first century AD and was erected to deal with the demographic development of ancient Puteoli, which had made the building previously used for circus performances inadequate. It is said that here in the 4th century AD the martyrdom of San Gennaro, then sent back to Solfatara.

The Flavian Amphitheater was thus employed to host gladiator fights and it is estimated that it could hold up to 40,000 spectators. In fact, in terms of capacity it was second only to the Colosseum and the Amphitheater Campano in Capua.

According to historians, it would have been built under Vespasian and inaugurated by Titus, and its discovery dates back to 1839 with the first archaeological excavations. However, the monument was only finally unearthed in 1947.

Architecturally, it shows an exterior facade with three orders of arcades, four main entrances and twelve other secondary entrances. In the basements gears used to lift the cages of the beasts that fought with the gladiators can still be seen.

After completing your visit to the Flavian Amphitheater, you can drop by the nearby Rione Terra to learn about the wonders of Puteoli Sacra And have another equally exciting experience!
