ABSTRACT

The paper is focused on the project of restoration and recovery of the Roman Amphitheatre in Tivoli.

Abandoned and forgotten for many years, it is an essential part of the cultural heritage of the city, consisting

in monuments such as the Villa d'Este, the Rocca Pia (whose recovery will be completed soon) and the

ScuderieEstensi.

Its restoration arises, in fact, interesting questions related not only to the preservation of the archaeological

site, but also to its understanding, interpretation and presentation to the public (partial reconstructions), as
