A spectacular restoration project at Pompeii means visitors can now visit the famed House of Lovers for the first time in 40 years.

The building is one of the best-known attractions at Pompeii, the ancient city buried in 79 AD after nearby Mount Vesuvius erupted.

Some €105 million have so far been spent, the Italian Ministry of Cultural Heritage said in a tweet, and a further €50 million has been allocated to allow work to continue. "A place where research and new archaeological excavations are back thanks to the long and silent work of the many professionals of cultural heritage that have contributed to the extraordinary results that are there for all to see and that are a source of pride for Italy."
