In the heart of Bassa Tuscia is the small and characteristic village of Bassano Romano, a few kilometers from Via Cassia.
Dating back to about 1000, over the centuries the village developed under the Papal States, initially as the residence of the lord of Sutri Enrico Serco. Thanks to the noble family of the Justinians the town developed and the wonderful Palace was erected, rich in works of great value, inside which there is also a small, but very important theater.
The advent of cinema transformed the village into the perfect place to shoot the scenes of some of the greatest Italian films that have left their mark in the collective memory: "White, Red and Verdone" by Carlo Verdone, "La Dolce Vita" by Federico Fellini, "L'Avaro" by Tonino Cervi, "Ninì Tirabusciò" by Marcello Fondato. Visiting Bassano Romano means discovering the beauties kept in the Palazzo Giustiniani and its adjoining garden, being able to admire the Statue of Christ Portacroce carved by Michelangelo and kept in the Church of San Vincenzo Martire, get to know the ancient churches and walk through the picturesque streets of the old town, discovering towers, historic buildings and narrow alleys that during the holidays are filled with people in joy.
Along the road that winds from the village in the countryside, you get to the Faggeta, a beautiful beech forest that at only 500 meters above sea level develops over 400 hectares, creating a silent and magical. It is the ancient traditions that animate the heart of Bassano Romano and gather hundreds of people at every opportunity, each of which can not help but admire the village in all its splendor. But Bassano is not only made of history and monuments, but also of activities and people who every day participate in the economic and social life of the country. Artisans, traders and small entrepreneurs help to keep alive a country that deserves to be discovered.
