The Lupanar is the ruined building of an ancient Roman brothel in the city of Pompeii [1]. It is of particular interest for the erotic paintings on its walls [1]. The Lupanar is located approximately two blocks east of the forum and near the Stabian Baths at the intersection of Vico del Lupanare and Vico del Balcone Pensile [1]. The Lupanar of Pompeii was not exclusively a place for prostitution but also a place of leisure for local men [1].
