Acqualoreto Historic Village

Highlight • Historical Site

The Borgo overlooks the Tiber valley, between Todi and Orvieto, between the Forello Gorges and Lake Corbara. Its dominant position in the Middle Ages made it an important village for the defense of Todi from attacks by Orvieto. Di Acqualoreto is Angeluccio di Andrea who in 1471 founded the Monte di Pietà in Todi. The historic center, with a medieval layout, is well preserved and houses an antiques market. In the surrounding area many villas and farmhouses, of considerable value, restored and inhabited by many foreigners who gather every Saturday evening for a multilingual aperitif, in the Bar of the Recreational Club in the square in front of the town.
There is a "La Cruccola" restaurant, always on the square, and a fountain inside the Borgo door.

The houses of its evocative historic center still speak of the events that saw it as protagonist and of the nobles who held them in lordship: the Fredi from the 12th century. and in 1500 the Acts, under which the castle prospered and embellished itself. Famous and sought after were the stonemasons of Civitella. In 1810 it took the name of Civitella dei Pazzi but the reason is not known. The parish church of Santa Maria was the oldest in the castle. After the construction of the Corbara dam and the lake of the same name, it took the name of Civitella del Lago in 1962.

Particularly suggestive is the medieval village, intact in its original structure, called "I Buchi", a name deriving from the small size of the houses and alleys, a real ancient world perfectly preserved. The 16th century church of S. Niccolò is declared a national monument and was soberly designed by the Orvieto architect Ippolito Scalza. Inside there is a precious 15th century triptych by Giovanni di Paolo Senese; above the door a beautiful organ from the 1700s with 500 pipes by the Fedeli brothers.
