Civita di Bagnoregio, often referred to as the “Dying Town,” is a small, ancient hilltop village located in central Italy, within the province of Viterbo in the Lazio region. Perched precariously atop a plateau of friable volcanic tuff, the town is renowned for its picturesque charm, dramatic vistas, and its striking isolation, as it is accessible only via a pedestrian bridge. The Etruscans founded Civita more than 2,500 years ago, and the town’s rich history is evident in its well-preserved medieval architecture. However, erosion and landslides have led to the gradual crumbling of its edges, making the preservation of Civita di Bagnoregio a pressing concern. Its enchanting atmosphere and historical significance make it a popular destination for tourists seeking an off-the-beaten-path experience.
