House of the Orchard

Italy

House of the Orchard (Italian: Casa dei Cubicoli Floreali; also referred to as the Casa del Frutteto or the House of the Garden) is an ancient Roman residential structure located in the archaeological site of Pompeii. Situated on the south side of Via dell'Abbondanza, this house is notable for rich and decorative features. It is also known by various other names, including the House of Euplia and the House of the Flower Cubicles, due to the floral motifs found in its rooms. Like many other structures in Pompeii, it was preserved under volcanic ash following the eruption of Mount Vesuvius in 79 CE.
