Isola Sacra - South-east part - Horrea "Aldobrandini"

During excavations in 1957 the remains were found of three buildings that were interpreted as warehouses (horrea), with rooms arranged around courtyards. They could be dated to the second half of the first and to the second century AD.

In a few rooms to the west of the horrea basins were found with waterproof plaster (opus signinum), perhaps a fullery (fullonica).
