A plunge into the heart of antiquity and get to know the city from its heart retracing the history and daily life of past ages through a picturesque route.<\/p>\n
Speleologists discovered this\u00a0underground world that had been dug, used and forgotten: an obscure maze divided into more than 1,200 caves, tunnels, wells, cisterns, created by man over nearly three millennia of willful and continuous work.<\/p>\n
Today, the path runs through the heart of these cavities where there are visible traces of \u00a0Etruscan and medieval\u00a0antiquities<\/strong>: in particular are of great interest dovecotes and the remains of an entire medieval mill complete with grinders, presses, fireplace, mangers for animals reps millstones.<\/p>\n
Caves can be visited only with local staff. Self visit not allowed<\/strong>. Tickets can be purchased at the ticket office in Piazza del Duomo 23<\/strong>, (it’s also the departure place for group guided visit) and it is included in the Carta Unica.<\/p>\n
