known for its cemetery. Here you will have

thousands of tombs, some dating back to the
7th century B.C.
Your driver guide will also take you
to Lake Bracciano, from which the ancient Roman
town of Anguillara rises. Anguillara was ruled
by the Orsini family in medieval times, until
the territory was taken over by the Anguillara
family in the historic year of 1492. Here you
can visit some ancient ruins and medieval palaces.
Driving along the lakeside road in Vigna di
Valle, you can stop for lunch at La Caletta,
one of the best local restaurants. The excellent
cuisine here is complemented by the beautiful
lakefront views.
After lunch the journey continues to Bracciano,
where you will visit the Orsini-Odescalchi
Castle. The castle was built in the 15th century
by the Orsini family, and passed on to the
Odescalchis in 1696. The peculiarities of this
site included its pentagonal boundary walls,
and its manor–house with frescoes by Antoniazzo
Romano and other Tuscan and Umbrian artists.
The castle has gained modern notoriety as the
locale for celebrity weddings like that of
Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes.
NOTE: The Orsini - Odescalchi castle only allows tours led by their own guide. You may be with other people during the portion of the tour.
