Activity itinerary

Museo Nazionale Tarquiniense
  • 2h
  • Admission ticket not included
Housed within Palazzo Vitelleschi, the National Etruscan Museum of Tarquinia is beyond doubt among the main attractions of the city. The Palazzo Vitelleschi deserves a visit for itself! Built by Cardinal Giovanni Vitelleschi between 1436 and 1439 with a design by Giovanni Dalmata, thanks to the simultaneous presence of Gothic and Renaissance elements and a true architectural masterpiece.
Necropoli di Tarquinia
  • 1h

Palazzo dei Priori
  • 30m
A nice walk through the narrow streets of the Historical Centre of Tarquinia.In Piazza Giacomo Matteotti where you will find the Palazzo Comunale, the monumental eighteenth-century fountain
Santa Maria di Castello
  • 30m
The splendid Romanesque Church of Saint Mary in the Castle deserves a chapter on its own. The church is situated in the oldest part of Tarquinia, where the Castrum Cargnetum was located, originating the nucleus of ancient Corneto. To reach it, you have to walk along Via di Porta Castello, cross the ancient gate with the Tower of Dante and the Tower of Matilde di Canossa in the background. A few steps to be catapulted 1000 years back! The atmosphere here is simply magical, especially at night when the streets are illuminated only by the light of the street-lamps... the ideal place for a romantic walk in history.
Parrocchia Ss. Margherita E Martino
  • 15m
The Cathedral of Saints Margherita and Martino, built around 1260, is located in the square with the same name a few steps from Palazzo Vitelleschi and it is part of the diocese of Civitavecchia and Tarquinia.
