Servian Wall
The Servian Wall was the defensive wall of ancient Rome, named after the king Servius Tullius but largely built in the early fourth century BCE after the Gallic sack of about 390 BCE. Made of large blocks of tufa from Grotta Oscura near Veii, it ran about 11 kilometres around the city's hills. Sections still stand, including one beside Termini station.
