Castiglione In Teverina: Hilltop Town with a History of Wine and Culture

Castiglione In Teverina is situated on a hill overlooking the Tiber Valley.

Churches and Historical Traces

The collegiate church of Santi Filippo e Giacomo was completed in 1630. Another historical trace leads to the church of San Rocco, which was built in the 15th century as a hospital. Both buildings represent different periods in the town’s history and give your stay a tangible historical focus, without requiring you to commit to a single theme.

MUVIS: History, Art and Memory

MUVIS is housed in the former 19th-century cellars of the Conti Vaselli. The museum’s exhibition conveys impressions of the history, art and memory of the local community. This combination of a historic building and a focus on cultural reflection makes MUVIS an obvious destination for visitors who want to understand the character of the town through its past and cultural life.

Experience Wine and Taste Regional Products

Trebotti’s EcoWineExperience requires advance reservation. The experience includes a guided tour through vineyards, an olive grove, an Etruscan tomb and a wine cellar. The tour is not limited to the wine cellar, but also includes the olive grove and the Etruscan tomb. The offering therefore brings together several specific landscape and cultural themes that can be just as interesting for an individually planned trip as for a stay focused on wine and regional history.

An optional tasting menu can also be selected. It includes organic, typical products from Tuscia, including cured meats, cheese, crostini, bruschetta, vegetables and seasonal desserts.

Routes and Festivals in the Surrounding Area

CAI Trail 192 runs from the Pianello archaeological zone through Castiglione in Teverina to Sermugnano. For your planning, this specific route can be taken into account alongside cultural sightseeing and culinary experiences.

At the Festa del Vino di Castiglione in Teverina, wine is presented at exhibition stands and served in the cellars of the historic center. The festival links the local wine tradition with the historic spaces of the center. The area around Castiglione In Teverina also includes Castello di Corbara, a castle, and the Museum Dell'Opera del Duomo Orvieto, a museum.
