The restoration of the public fountains of the ancient city of Pompeii
The official restorer of the Archaeological Park of Pompeii, Paola Sabbatucci, and the technical director of Pantone Restauri, Luca Pantone, explain the ongoing restoration work on the public fountains of the ancient city of Pompeii. This is a comprehensive project that includes the restoration of more than 40 public fountains, the 3D survey of the artefacts and an archaeological excavation around some of the fountains that will allow us to investigate their relationship with the road network. The restoration work seeks to preserve these fountains for as long as possible, and to return them to public use, looking their very best.
