Olbia for history buffs
Ancient history comes to life when you book accommodation in Olbia to rent through Holidu. You can explore evidence of the ancient civilizations of Phoenicia and Carthage in the area.

Remains of Roman baths, aqueducts and other installations are still clearly visible in parts of the city. You can also see many amazing archaeological discoveries when you visit the Olbia National Archaeology Museum. Although the Roman settlements were destroyed by the Vandals, the area was later taken over by the Byzantine Empire.
