The Roman Castles are situated roughly 30 kilometers from Rome in the ancient territory of Lazio Vetus. These are a grouping of small villages spread across a region with a volcanic origin, surrounded by lush hills, forests, and lakes. Fourteen of these villages are rich in historical significance, traditions, and cultural festivities. The term ‘Roman Castles’ can be traced back to the 14th century when many Romans sought refuge in the castles of Roman feudal families like the Savelli, Annibaldi, Orsini, and Colonna, to elude the socio-economic hardships stirred up by the confinement in Avignon. The Roman Castles are positioned in the hilly terrains of the Alban Hills, in close proximity to one another. This region offers the privilege of exploring the core hilly towns of Nemi, Ariccia, and Castel Gandolfo during a holiday. The prime economic activities in the region revolve around agriculture and viticulture, generating employment and yielding highly regarded wines.
