Welcome to the largest Roman home in Britain.
Imagine the luxury that would once have surrounded the proud owner of this lavish Roman residence. Stroll around the recreated Roman gardens – the earliest gardens found anywhere in the country – and enjoy the largest collection of mosaics in situ in the UK.
Get hands-on at our exciting family events and marvel at the largest collection of early Roman mosaic floors in Britain. Discovered in 1960, the North Wing of this remarkable building is an important attraction for anyone interested in learning more about Roman life, art and architecture.
Dating back to the beginning of the Roman occupation of Britain, the Roman Palace offers visitors of all ages a unique experience. Among the remarkable remains of the North Wing, lie over twenty mosaics including the spectacular Cupid on a Dolphin. Visitors can also view the under floor heating system, and corridors from the elevated walkways. An introductory film shows how the Palace may have looked 2,000 years ago
Getting to Fishbourne
