The
residential-military Miseno had about 6,000 men of the fleet living there. They
had been recruited among the imperial freedmen and slaves and were faithful to
the emperor who, after his death, was the object of veneration in the “Sacello
degli Augustali” (Sacellum of the Augustus). The ruins of this chapel can be
seen in the Castello di Baia (Castle of Baia). Not far away from the Sacellum,
the theatre was situated, built leaning against the hill and small in size; a
part of the lower corridor is still visible.
