Facts and practical information

The Faustus Amphitheater or in Latin, Amphitheatrum Faustus is the amphitheater located in the historic center of Terni, at the time called Interamna Nahars. It is also the city's main and best-maintained archaeological monument of Roman times. The subject of numerous renovations since the 1970s, it could hold 10,000 spectators.

It turns out to be older than the Colosseum in Rome, as it was built in the Julio-Claudian era under Emperor Tiberius, approximately in 30 or 32 AD.
