Ercolano, formerly known as Herculaneum, is a historic town located in the metropolitan city of Naples in the Campania region of Italy. The modern town sits atop the ancient Roman city of Herculaneum, which was destroyed and preserved by the eruption of Mount Vesuvius in 79 AD, along with Pompeii.

The archaeological remains of Herculaneum are remarkably well-preserved due to being buried under volcanic material, offering visitors a unique glimpse into Roman life. The ancient site features sophisticated Roman architecture, including multi-story buildings, decorated villas, and intricate mosaics. Today, Ercolano combines its rich archaeological heritage with contemporary Italian life, making it an important cultural destination.

The town continues to be a significant center for archaeological research and cultural preservation, with ongoing excavations and studies regularly revealing new insights into ancient Roman civilization.
