The Rocca Monaldeschi della Cervara, built in the 11th century, stands on a hill in the heart of the medieval district of Bolsena, offering a splendid panorama of the picturesque village and the lake. Walking along the narrow and romantic streets that lead up to the castle from the center is an experience that is truly worth it, giving you the opportunity to explore the medieval architecture of the village while your gaze is lost over the roofs of the city, enjoying the view of the lake . Inside the castle there is the territorial museum of Lake Bolsena, which houses finds from the Etruscan, Roman and medieval eras.

The castle Rocca Monaldeschi della Cervara offers magnificent views of Bolsena and the lake. The climb through the winding, romantic streets is worth the visit of the castle. Inside the castle you will find the Museo Territoriale del Lago di Bolsena with exhibits from the Etruscan, Roman and medieval periods.

The castle is situated on a hill in the middle of the medieval quarter of Bolsena. The best way to start the visit is on foot near the fountain in Piazza San Rocco. From there it goes up stairs and staircases. This is a wonderful way to discover the medieval architecture and in between look over the roofs of the city and enjoy the panorama of the lake. The castle itself was built between the 11th and 14th centuries as a fortified castle and bulwark in a trapezoidal shape with 4 square towers.
