Parco Archeologico

Lipari


In the sunken area opposite Lipari's cathedral, you can see the remains of a series of circular huts, the oldest of which date to the 17th century BC. Nearby, at the southern end of the citadel, you'll find some Greek sarcophagi adjacent to an open-air amphitheatre that was built in 1978.
