Civita Castellana sits on a volcanic tufa plateau surrounded by dramatic gorges (forre) that feel like a miniature Grand Canyon. The Forte Sangallo, designed by the Borgias' architect Antonio da Sangallo, is one of the finest Renaissance fortresses in Italy. And the entire Tuscia region around it — Sutri, Nepi, Calcata — is a goldmine of Etruscan and medieval treasures that Roman day-trippers barely know about.
