Monte Santa Maria Tiberina

(at 30min)

Situated at an altitude of almost 700m, the village enjoys a superb view over the valley below; today almost uninhabited, it has kept all its medieval charm intact. Starting from the XI century it was the stronghold of the feud of the Marquis Bourbon del Monte who, having come to Italy following the Franks, conquered a large part of the Upper Tiber Valley. The 16th century castle and the church of Santa Maria with the crypt-sepolcro of the Bourbon del Monte family are worth a visit. Within the walls there is also a beautiful parish church of the Mille, where a valuable stone baptismal font is preserved.
