Velletri

Velletri has served as a Volscian town in the Alban Hills since antiquity. Known to the Romans as Velitrae, it lay within Rome’s orbit and was associated with the Octavian family from which Emperor Augustus descended. The town stands on the southern side of the Colli Albani above the plain towards the former Pontine Marshes, while the Castelli Romani lie to the north. Velletri Cathedral is dedicated to Saint Clement, and the civic archaeological museum holds finds from ancient Velitrae.
