Viterbo lived its period of major splendor and power in the 13th century when it was chosen as the seat of the papacy instead of Rome, where powerful warring families made life too dangerous. Eight different popes lived in Viterbo making it is similar to Vatican City and Avignon in France. The longest papal conclave in history happened here from 1 December 1268 to 1 September 1271. Following Pope Clement IV's death, infighting between cardinals and political pressure led to a 34-month deadlock. The cardinals were locked up cum clave (hence the word conclave) inside the palace’s large Conclave Hall. In desperation the town’s population, who were feeding them and their entourages, eventually reduced the cardinals’ food and wine supplies, trying to speed up the election. Time wore on and they finally decided to remove the roof of the palace: in order to help the Holy Spirit come down and illuminate them, it was quipped. That worked.

pleasant road, little traffic.

The gate bears the coat of arms of Vitorchiano with the inscription SPQR (for which the village received permission from Rome). The gate is part of the old wall that extends for about two hundred and fifty metres on the south side of Vitorchiano. The tower above the gate dates from the 13th century. The old city walls (Le Mura Castellane) have several towers, each built of peperino stone and dovetail battlements with loopholes in between.

The Papal Palace in Viterbo served as the Vatican for the 24 years of the thirteenth century when the papacy moved there due to ongoing unrest in Rome.

Beautiful village in Tuscia, very safe due to the absence of thefts...!

This family-owned pizzeria in Viterbo has delicious and affordable pizza, made with fresh ingredients and baked in a wood-fired oven. The dough is a highlight, with its perfect texture and taste. It has a warm and friendly atmosphere which makes you feel at home.

Vitorchiano, an ancient center a few kilometers from Viterbo, is one of the many but charming villages of Tuscia. The beautiful historic center is characterized by the gray color of peperino and by alleys, arches, profferli and very suggestive squares. Equally suggestive and, sometimes unexpected, are the viewpoints towards the gorge of the Fosso Acqua Fredda, a tributary of the Vezza River. For some years it has been included in the list of the Most Beautiful Villages in Italy. https://www.lazionascosto.it/borghi-piu-belli-del-lazio/vitorchiano/
