Save to your city mapThe Colosseum, also known as the Flavian Amphitheatre, was the biggest amphitheater in the Roman Empire with capacity for 50,000 people. Hosting gladiator fights and performances, the colosseum was the center of entertainment and enjoyment at the height of the Roman Empire. It is thought that the name 'Colosseum' may be taken from the statue of Nero nearby, which was given its name from the Colossus of Rhodes. The site has been elected as one of the seven new world wonders.
