San Lorenzo Nuovo

Highlight • Settlement

San Lorenzo Nuovo is a village located on the north side of the Volsini Mountains just five kilometers from the shores of Lake Bolsena. The city was founded in 1779 by the inhabitants of San Lorenzo alle Grotte, who had to move because of the presence of malaria-carrying swamps that made the air unhealthy. The historic center of the village is of a neoclassical style dating back to 700. The town has a particular urban structure consisting of a series of houses that follow the octagonal shape of Piazza Europa, the town center where the Church of San Lorenzo stands.

Monaldeschi della Cervara Fortress

Highlight • Castle

The Rocca Monaldeschi della Cervara, built in the 11th century, stands on a hill in the heart of the medieval district of Bolsena, offering a splendid panorama of the picturesque village and the lake. Walking along the narrow and romantic streets that lead up to the castle from the center is an experience that is truly worth it, giving you the opportunity to explore the medieval architecture of the village while your gaze is lost over the roofs of the city, enjoying the view of the lake . Inside the castle there is the territorial museum of Lake Bolsena, which houses finds from the Etruscan, Roman and medieval eras.
