Posillipo was a quarter of Naples, Italy, located along the shore of the Bay of Naples to the west of the city. The town was located on the promontory of Posillipo, which divided the eastern Bay of Naples, with the city of Naples itself, from the small Bay of Baiae and the town of Pozzuoli. The area was notable for an ancient Roman tunnel running for over a half-mile through the Posillipo hill, and for being the location of the reputed tomb of the poet Virgil.
