Civita di Bagnoregio

This charming town is erected on a clayey cone and a tufo basement which is relentlessly breaking up, letting house after house slip into the valley underneath.

A violent earthquake in 1695 started this series of landslips and subsequent falls – now Civita is almost deserted.

Among its sights, the Church of S.Donato, built in the 8th century.
