The village of Sutri is located on the Via Cassia, it is worth a stop to visit the wonderful archaeological area and the rock necropolis

very nice village, recommended visit

Sutri is a charming town in the province of Viterbo. It is located about 30 kilometers north of Rome and has about 6565 inhabitants. The city is built on a tuff hill and has a beautiful location with many historical sights. Sutri is rich in historical sites, including a Roman amphitheater, an Etruscan necropolis, the Santa Maria del Tempio church, the Madonna del Parto church, the villa Savorelli, and the remains of a castle. In addition, there are also several historic palaces and churches in the city. The city is located on the ancient main road Via Cassia, an ancient Roman road from Rome to Tuscany. It is also an important stop on the Via Francigena, one of the oldest pilgrimage routes in Europe that runs from Canterbury to Rome.

The church, in a very poor state of conservation, has a façade framed between two twin bell towers which have now almost completely disappeared (only a faint trace remains of part of the one on the left) and has Doric pilasters (false Doric columns in relief) in stucco with a large triangular gable (also called pediment). The roof of the church was octagonal topped by a lantern, while inside it was domed. Opposite the entrance to the church in the center of the square there is still the base of Bernini's octagonal fountain and, after the restoration works of 1995-96, a copy faithful to the original was placed there. Bernini's fountain can today be admired, however, in the square of the Municipality of Canale Monterano. A representation of the church is in a 1781 painting by G. Barbieri in the Altieri palace in Oriolo Romano. https://www.iluoghidelsilenzio.it/convento-di-san-bonaventura-monterano-di-canale-monterano-rm/

On the hills of the Sabatini mountains, we find Oriolo Romano, lying near Lake Bracciano. This locality became a nature reserve in 1999 and counts among its attractions the Olmate, the gardens of Palazzo Altieri and a luxuriant beech forest. The village has an urban planning that dates back to its foundation and enjoys historical significance as a transit point for the Etruscan and Roman civilizations.

beautiful village, I recommend to visit it

May 2023 - the path is not really developed but rather a wild path - so go on the adventure with long pants and sturdy shoes. My tip would be to go to the ruins of the third mill. It is an ancient dam with two breakthroughs and therefore two waterfalls. Carefully go over the wall (!) Crashing wouldn't be a good idea...then go right. into the ancient man-made aqueduct. The tunnel is over 2 meters high and was probably a regulated inflow/outflow from the mill. The top highlight of this valley.
