Bolsena

The landscape around Bolsena is shaped by the broad volcanic basin of Lake Bolsena, a setting that has influenced both the town’s layout and livelihoods based on fishing, farming and tourism. The historic centre rises above the lake’s northeastern shore, with lanes leading towards the medieval Rocca Monaldeschi della Cervara, now home to the Territorial Museum of Lake Bolsena. Bolsena is also closely associated with the 1263 Eucharistic miracle tradition, commemorated in the Basilica of Santa Cristina and linked to the origins of the Corpus Christi feast.
