Capranica is a village in Tuscia, built on a tuff cliff between the Cimini Mountains and the Mignone River valley. Its origins are Etruscan, but the center we see today retains its medieval charm, with narrow streets, arches, ancient gates, and evocative churches such as that of Santa Maria Maddalena. Hazelnut groves, olive groves, and woods extend all around, creating a distinctive landscape. It's a pleasant stop on the Via Francigena, where history and nature meet in an authentic and welcoming atmosphere.

In 1207 Innocent III consecrated the Ancient Cathedral of S. Maria Assunta (already enlarged by Pope Sergius III in 908) whose works lasted for about fifty years. For the occasion he brought as a gift to the city the beautiful panel of the Byzantine Christ still on display. At least another eight hundred years must be added to the eight hundred years of history considering that Sutri was one of the first episcopal seats in the world (465 AD first bishop St. Eusebius). Today it is possible to admire in all its splendor the Romanesque bell tower and the Cosmatesque floor. The visitor passionate about the sacred will not miss the beauty of the Crypt believed by some scholars to even date back to the Lombard era.

The church of San Rocco is a church in Sutri, in the small square of San Rocco, in the old town... It is located near Porta Vecchia or Franceta, so called by the Franks as the pilgrims of the Francigena who passed through from the north towards Rome were called. It is located next to what was once the hospital of Sutri and which is now home to the city museum. In this church was the seat of the brotherhood of St. Martin of Tours" which had arrived from the ancient Vicus which was located towards Monterosi in a place still called San Martino today. Later the church, remembered in an apostolic visit of 1574 was destroyed and rebuilt as evidenced by the date carved on the architrave which cites the year 1608. On that date it also hosted the brotherhood of San Rocco, which then gave its name to the building, which had been forced to abandon its headquarters, of the Church of the Madonna del Carmine in the Monte Bono area held by the Carmelites because it was in a serious state of decay, even if later in the years of the 18th century a solemn votive feast was held there in memory of the liberation from the plague. It is also believed that San Rocco (who was a French pilgrim and miracle worker, venerated as a saint by the Catholic Church and patron of numerous cities and towns, and also the most invoked saint, from the Middle Ages onwards, as a protector from the terrible scourge of the plague,) coming from Acquapendente on his journey to Rome stopped like many pilgrims of the Francigena before reaching Rome and, according to the new chronology, between 1367 and 1368. The church has a simple façade with a sloping roof and an entrance portal with a peperino architrave. The painting on the altar depicts the Virgin with Child, San Rocco and S. Martino, the patrons of the two confraternities that were later dissolved. and, S. Sebastiano executed by Giov. de Bonis, Rome, 1860. A restoration project was recently carried out. The intervention consisted of lining a border that was completely detached from the frame; fixing the pictorial film and removing surface deposits, which allowed the visibility of the work to be restored. The church is entrusted to the care of the Nuova Società di Sant'Antonio Abate. . " (c) http://www.parrocchiasutri.org/chiese/sanrocco.html

Built by order of Innocent XIII, it mirrors the Tower of the Winds of the Quirinale Palace, erected in 1723 by the same Pope. It would seem that the Sutrina Tower is a year older than the one on the Quirinale, almost as if the Pope wanted to do a dress rehearsal here. It is located above a Roman arch from the Republican era. (c) https://comune.sutri.vt.it/vivere-il-comune/luoghi/la-torre-dellorologio/

The ancient church with its adjoining convent was founded by Saint Francis himself in 1222 and dedicated to Saint Angelo. Saint Anthony of Padua also lived in the convent and for a year, during his wanderings around Italy, he held the position of master of novices. The church, after decades of closure due to damage from the bombings of the Second World War, has undergone a long restoration project and has been returned to the faithful and tourists. The architectural elements of the Romanesque style are interesting, such as the ribbed cross vault, the beams of the central nave, the high altar and the typical bell gable.

Villa Savorelli (15th-18th century) is the testimony of centuries of history that – from the Renaissance through the Baroque and up to the Romantic Age – have shaped architecture and nature in an evocative ensemble among the most important among the historic villas of the Tuscia Viterbese. Built on 3 floors, with a square plan, it is currently set up to host events and houses the headquarters of the Regional Park. The complex also includes the underlying Italian garden that preserves within it real plant monuments: laurel hedges and centuries-old boxwood specimens. The garden is divided into 3 panels, 2 of which depict the ancient coat of arms of the Savorelli family and the third, the oldest, between the Villa and the Church of the Madonna del Monte. The latter today presents a composite structure in which different architectural styles coexist. Born as a medieval church, originally with a rectangular plan, it was only transformed in 1725 with the opening of the apse, to give the structure a greater sense of perspective; with the consequent creation of the 2 side chapels, the positioning of columns leaning against the walls. The facade was also worked on, developed vertically according to the Borromini style, with 2 bell towers capable of making the church, erected on the highest point of the hill, a soaring building clearly visible from the city. The Savorelli compendium is completed with a forest of centuries-old holm oaks (Quercus ilex) set at different heights, already called the “Sacred Forest” for centuries, in reference to the ancient pagan belief that imagined woods and forests populated by nymphs, goblins and fauns, symbolic personifications of nature's eternal capacity for renewal.

Inside the garden of Villa Savorelli is the Church of S. Maria del Monte, rebuilt by the Muti-Papazzurri family at the beginning of the 18th century only after a special episcopal permit, which bound the family to allow its use by the people. Rebuilt according to a design by Sebastiano Cipriani on the site of a previous building, it has an imposing façade, of Borrominian influence, flanked by two bell towers and surmounted by a tympanum with a broken and recessed frame. Two pillars with projecting pilaster strips delimit the concave central area, in which the portal opens with the large window above. The interior, rather small compared to the size of the façade, is composed of a small hall with a cross plan. The façade, in Baroque style, is flanked by two bell towers while the interior is composed of a small hall with a Greek cross plan.

The Anfiteatro Romano in Sutri is an impressive archaeological monument carved entirely out of tuff. Built between the late 2nd century B.C. and the early 1st century AD, this amphitheater represents the heart of the Sutri identity. It has an elliptical shape and could accommodate about 7000 spectators. The amphitheater is divided into three rows of seats, separated for different social classes. There are two entrances: one overlooking Via Cassia, and the other, higher up, with a covered walkway. The amphitheater was partially excavated between 1835 and 1838. There are only two other amphitheaters in the world that are completely carved into the rock, in Cagliari and Leptis Magna (Libya).
