The Amphitheater of Capua, one of the most significant ancient Roman sites in Campania, was likely constructed in the first century BC. Second in size only to the Colosseum, this massive stadium stands as a testament to Roman engineering and historical events. It was here that Spartacus famously led the slave uprising in 73 BC. Today, visitors can explore the remnants of this monumental structure, imagining the roar of the crowds and the dramatic scenes that once unfolded within its walls.
