The Mausoleum of Cecilia Metella is a grandiose Roman funerary monument, located near the Via Appia.
In 2018, the museum circuit of the tomb of Cecilia Metella and the villa dei Quintili recorded 44 136 visitors and a total gross income of 93 687 euros.

The same battlements, later rebuilt higher in the Middle Ages, were already present in the travertine structure and recalled the ancient mounds with the perimeter marked by stones.
