The Michelin Guide's review
The traces of a lighthouse, part of the city walls and the Roman baths are easily distinguishable in the lower town. The handsome Porta Rosa (4C BC), the most important civic monument from ancient "Great Greece", leads to a promontory and the site of an acropolis with the remains of a medieval castle erected on the foundations of a Greek temple.
