Sezze

Few towns in Lazio have a history as closely tied to the Latin colony of Setia, founded in 382 BC, as Sezze. Set on the slopes of the Lepini Mountains above the Pontine Plain, the town marks the transition between inland hills and the lowlands leading toward the Tyrrhenian coast. Ancient Setia was celebrated for its wine by Roman writers, and its name remains central to Sezze’s identity. The old centre follows the hillside in a network of narrow streets and stone-built quarters, while the plain below connects it to southern Lazio’s agricultural landscape.
