Roman Dock

Oct 2017 • Couples

Designed almost 2000 years ago by the great architect Apollodorus of Damascus, the Roman Dock allowed the Roman Imperial Fleet to stop and restock. The Dock is the innermost and oldest part of the Port of Civitavecchia. This area was bombed heavily in 1943, but there are ruins of the old Roman walls still visible. Today it’s an active fishing port and numerous small boats are docked here. It’s definitely worth seeking out the Roman Dock not only for its history, but to catch a glimpse of the real Civitavecchia today

Surprising find

May 2019 • Couples

We were following the walks and numbered highlights on the Target “Welcome to Civitavecchia” fold out map.

#1 is the Darsena Romansa and were looking for the reconstruction of a section of a Liburna, an ancient Roman and Illyrian raiding ship, which we found. The section is beautifully made although smaller than we expected it to be.

Alongside were numerous fishing boats, and several fishermen working their nets. Fishing nets and other equipment were stacked alongside, under the covered area. It was unexpected to see this, so different from the rest of the walk along the sea front.

Amazing

Jul 2018 • Family

The Romans really knew how to build, and is it amazing to think that there are Roman walls that are still incorporated into the structure of the port up until the present day. Well worth a look if you are in Civitavecchia.

The Roman dock is the oldest part of the port. It has the shape of a rectangle, communicating with the new port only by a small stretch. This construction, obviously from the Trajan era, survived intact until the Middle Ages.
