Ipogeo celtico

The Ipogeo Celtico is an underground network with multiple rooms connected by corridors carved directly into the bedrock. The chambers feature stone benches and carved details on their walls that mark out the space.

The site originates from pre-Roman times and bears marks of Celtic occupation followed by later adjustments during the Roman and Lombard periods. These layers of use trace the long span of human presence and adaptation in the space.

Three carved faces on the chamber walls hint at spiritual practices and beliefs of the people who shaped this place long ago. They remain visible today and catch the eye as you move through the underground rooms.

Access is through a steep staircase descending to the central chamber, with guided tours offered year-round. Wear comfortable shoes and prepare for tight, damp conditions underground.

Natural water seeping through porous rock covers the chamber floors with fine patterns that have formed over time. These moisture marks have gradually etched themselves into the stone surfaces over centuries.
