BACK TO POMPEII
Back to Pompeii Brings Ancient Roman City to Life in Toronto This Fall
Back to Pompeii is an immersive exhibition that invites guests to step inside ancient Pompeii. Visitors can walk through a Pompeian house and city street, exploring spaces such as a bakery, a thermopolium (an ancient Roman commercial snack bar), a school, a tavern and baths. Guided by an original audio narrative, they can interact with everyday objects while discovering Roman water systems, medicine, food, fragrances and graffiti. Highlights include The Earth Remembers, a 200-square-metre immersive room tracing the city’s history and the eruption of Mount Vesuvius, and a Walking VR journey through the ancient city, including its shops, amphitheatre and coastline.
