Lake Bolsena

Highlight • Lake

Lake Bolsena is located in Lazio, it is the fifth largest lake in Italy and is also the largest lake of volcanic origin in Europe. The main caldera, which has taken on the characteristic elliptical shape typical of lakes of volcanic origin, is set in the mountainous-hilly group of the Volsini Mountains. The formation of Lake Bolsena was very turbulent. The volcanic system of the Volsini, following the eruptions, emptied of magmatic material and ended up collapsing on itself creating a large caldera which over the years was filled with water. it is largely powered by rainwater. The only emissary is the Marta stream which flows into the Tyrrhenian Sea. Two islands emerge within Lake Bolsena: Bisentina Island and Martana Island.

Matteotti Square, Bolsena

Highlight • Settlement

It is best to start an exploration of the city from Piazza Matteotti, the center and the beating heart of the city. The tourist office is also located here. You have access to the historic center via a city gate. You will also find Chiesa di San Francesco, a church from the 13th century with a Gothic portal.

Bolsena Old Town and the Rocca Monaldeschi

Highlight • Historical Site

Dominated by the massive Rocca Monaldeschi, Bolsena is located on the northern shore of the homonymous lake of volcanic origin and not far from the same place where, in prehistoric times, a Villanovan village stood.
In Etruscan and then Roman times it became an important trading center; in the Middle Ages its importance grew thanks to the large flow of pilgrims that the Via Francigena led to Rome, but also to the veneration of the martyr S. Cristina in whose honor the Collegiate Church of S. Cristina was built. In this same church, the so-called Miracle of Bolsena (or of the bleeding host) took place in the thirteenth century, following which the feast of Corpus Domini was established for all of Christianity.
