A courtyard with sunlight streaming through, surrounded by a building with columns and tiled roofs under a cloudy sky. A classical male statue posed thoughtfully atop a rock, partially covered by green wireframe graphics in a gradient background. A colonnaded courtyard with potted plants, yellow and red walls, and a small decorative structure. The scene is sunlit. A full moon and dark clouds hover above a distant volcano emitting smoke and lava on a barren landscape. Building with a "MAV Virtual Archaeological Museum" sign, colorful murals, and a staircase in front. Residential building in the background.

The MAV (Museo Archeologico Virtuale) blends cutting-edge virtual reality technology with hands-on exhibitions to transport you back in time to 79 AD – just before the fateful eruption that destroyed Pompei and Herculaneum. History has never been so futuristic!

Just next to the real excavation sites of Herculaneum, the MAV combines ancient history with futuristic technology to bring the world of the Ancient Romans to vivid life. Over 70 multimedia installations take you on an interactive tour of Pompeii, Herculaneum, Baia, Stabiae and Capri.

With holograms and computer reconstructions you can journey through the Bourbon tunnels, marvel at the Villa of the Papyri, study Vesuvian frescoes, jostle through the Pompeii forum, and more.

It's so immersive, you won't notice how much you're learning!
