What you'll see
One of the best-preserved Roman amphitheatres anywhere: climb the stone tiers for a view of the square. In summer it still hosts open-air opera.
A brief history
Built around 30 AD, outside the walls of the Roman town; an earthquake in 1117 brought down most of its outer ring, leaving the four-arch fragment you see.
