Nepi, Medieval commune in Province of Viterbo, Italy.

The town sits on a tufa outcrop at 227 meters elevation, with three rivers flowing at the base of its fortified walls.

Founded in the 13th century BC, Nepi became Roman territory in 386 BC and gained colony status in 383 BC under Roman administration.

The Civic Museum displays artifacts from prehistoric to Renaissance periods, documenting the continuous occupation of this strategic settlement.

The Borgia Castle opens exclusively on weekends, requiring visitors to schedule their trips accordingly to access this 15th-century fortress.

The town's emblem features a snake and tower, stemming from the legend of King Termo Larte encountering a speaking serpent during city foundation.
