Province of Viterbo

The province encompasses 60 municipalities across 3,615 square kilometers of land between the Tiber River and the Tyrrhenian Sea, including lakes and volcanic mountains.

The territory witnessed the development of Etruscan settlements in cities like Tarquinia and Tuscania before becoming part of the Roman Republic in 310 BCE.

The province maintains numerous medieval structures, Renaissance palaces, and ancient necropolises, with traditional festivals celebrating regional heritage throughout its towns.

The provincial road network connects all municipalities to the capital city of Viterbo, making archaeological sites and thermal springs accessible to visitors.

The province contains Lake Bolsena, the largest volcanic lake in Europe, formed in the caldera of an ancient volcano within the Vulsini mountain range.
