테베리나의 바사노 최고의 라이딩 경로

입구의 기둥은 지역적으로 Mammalocchi라고 불립니다. 16세기 매너리즘 정원 및 건축 문화에서 활동했던 Pirro Ligorio에게 귀속되는 큰 트래버틴 알레고리적 형상입니다. 밑면에 조각된 납작한 장미는 Orsini 가문의 문장이며 영지의 옛 소유권을 나타냅니다. Mammalocchi는 실제로 Orsini 가문에 속했던 개인 빌라 입구에 서 있으며, 현재는 Roccagiovine의 Del Gallo 후작 가문에 속해 있습니다. 빌라의 평면도나 입면도는 묘사하지 않습니다.

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.

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.

An impressive entrance gate. The train ride appears to be no longer in use. It's a shame, perhaps it's no longer maintained.

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...!
