The source of the Tiber river is located on Monte Fumaiolo at 1205 meters above sea level. It is indicated by a stele inaugurated on 15 August 1934 which surmounts a basin fed by a fountain. The water gushes from the mountain and after having lapped the stele it begins its journey towards Rome. On the stele is engraved the inscription: "Here is born the river sacred to the destinies of Rome - O. N. D - August 15th MCMXXXIV. A. XII. E. F.".
