고대 첼레노, 유령 마을, 황토 위에 지어진 집들

13세기에 지어진 바글리오니 성은 높은 곳에 있지 않으며 그 규모는 웅장함으로만 두드러집니다. 이 마을은 원래 성의 수비대 가족들이 거주하도록 되어 있었으며 오랫동안 제한된 크기로 요새 안에 머물렀습니다. 19세기에도 지적도에 따르면 30채 이상의 집이 없었습니다. 더 알아보기 👇🏻 retedimorestorichelazio.it/dimora/vt/graffignano/castello-baglioni/ https://share.google/YpRf6kRfscjZSd4Ud

Past the old monastery, you arrive at the old hamlet. This elevated village had been depopulated since the 19th century and has become a veritable ruin due to erosion and earthquakes. It was completely abandoned in 1951. The Orsini Castle at the entrance to Celleno Antico is the most beautiful building in the hamlet. It boasts a large watchtower and is surrounded by a deep moat. It was recently restored and inhabited by the artist Enrico Castellani. This internationally renowned artist (he also studied in Brussels) died on December 1, 2017. In the old market square, you'll see a beautiful rectangular bell tower, three-tiered and made of tuff. Only the walls of the old church of San Carlo (17th century), to the left of the castle, remain. Near the market square is the church of San Donato, dating from the year 1000, in Romanesque style, with a beautiful basalt portal. IMG_1306

The monastery complex, dating back to 1610, is located at the entrance to Celleno Vecchio, an ancient medieval village at the crossroads of three regions: Lazio, Umbria, and Tuscany. Renovated, it is ideally suited for organizing courses in Eastern disciplines, religious retreats, conferences and seminars, summer camps, family stays, excursions, pilgrimages, and various groups. The accommodation accommodates approximately 50 guests in single, double, or triple rooms. Most rooms have a private bathroom, while the others have toilets and a sufficient number of showers. The building is surrounded by gardens, vegetable gardens, and a holm oak park. Next to the entrance is an old Romanesque apse that serves as a place of prayer. On the ground floor, in addition to the beautiful cloister with a central well, you will find a characteristic dining room (the old refectory), a small bar, and several meeting rooms. Two spacious, carpeted rooms are available for group work. The accommodation is run by three families who value community spirit and provide a welcoming and professional service.

Easy parking, very nice bar at the start and finish. Panoramic views, ghost town and quiet forests.

The houses in the village are painted with fairy tale themed murals

According to the classic Castrum system, the town of Graffignano developed following the construction of the Castle, built in a strategic position to protect supplies, not only food, between Viterbo and Umbria. In the 13th century, the castle was entrusted to the care of the Baglioni family, already owners of Castel di Piero, now San Michele in Teverina, without however experiencing significant periods of prolonged tranquility: it changed hands several times until it was conquered by Pandolfo degli Anguillara, mayor of Viterbo; whose objective was to weaken the hated Orvietani. The Baglioni family was therefore forced to submit to Viterbo to safeguard their safety. In the first half of the 16th century, Pope Clement VII confiscated the fiefdom due to the continuous internal struggles of the Baglioni family, only to return it to them after a short period. In the seventeenth century the entire fiefdom was acquired by the Borromeo family, but less than a century later, the entire Graffignano, recently transformed into a principality, was sold to Scipione Publicola di Santacroce. In the Republican era the castle became part of the assets of the Municipality of Graffignano, which takes care of it.
