Civita di Bagnoregio Civita was founded by Etruscans more than 2,500 years ago. Civita was the birthplace of Saint Bonaventure, who died in 1274. The location of his boyhood house has long since fallen off the edge of the cliff. By the 16th century, Civita was beginning to decline, becoming eclipsed by its former suburb Bagnoregio.
Civita di Bagnoregio is also known as the �dying town�. Perched on a tuffaceous hill in the middle of a landslide-prone valley, this nice little town is slowly succumbing to the ravages of time. It was once a thriving town, built by the Etruscan to protect a road leading from Lake Bolsena to the north across the Tiber valley. Rebuilt in the Middle Ages, Bagnoregio became an important centre with churches, hospices and homes of illustrious families.

A very famous spot, 'the dying city', only reachable by a footbridge from the nearby town.
Civita di Bagnoregio, the so called ‘dying city’ is another worth stop while near Orvieto. A charming medieval city which - except for the façade of the church – remains utterly untouched by the Renaissance. First built about 2,500 years ago by the Etruscans atop a tall column of volcanic tufa. One entrance was connected by a donkey path. The soft clay that made up much of the base of the town started to erode over the years and in the 17th century people moved to the more stable town. The long bridge that now joins Civita is steep—and it gets steeper as it rises.
