Alatri, Ancient hilltop settlement in Province of Frosinone, Italy.
The massive limestone walls encircling Alatri extend for 4 kilometers, reinforced with medieval towers and three monumental gates at strategic points.
The settlement, established by the Hernici people in the 7th century BC, constructed an acropolis and megalithic walls before falling under Roman control in 306 BC.
The Cathedral of San Paolo contains precious Cosmatesque decorations and religious relics from the late 13th century within its stone walls.
The town center maintains rail connections to Rome and Naples, with local services concentrated around the Trivio intersection of three main roads.
The ancient polygonal fortifications reach heights of 9 meters, displaying three distinct construction phases using local limestone blocks.
