Second phase of restoration work at Mausoleum of Augustus begins: 6 million euros donated by Tim Foundation

Planned for 2019 is the reopening to the public ofthe Mausoleum of Augustus, one of the most important monuments of ancient Rome, the largest circular tomb in existence.

In fact, the second phase of the restoration has begun thanks to funding (six million euros) from the Tim Foundation: lighting, fire, security and video surveillance systems will be built, as well as a 300-meter fence around the site that will illustrate through explanatory panels the history of Augustus and the funerary monument.
The exhibition route will also be enriched with 3-D images and multi-sensory systems, while at dusk new LED lighting will make the Mausoleum even more impressive.
