The guided tour of Bolsena will make you discover a beautiful medieval village in the heart of Tuscia, overlooking the lake of the same name with crystal clear waters. It starts from the Gothic-style Church of San Salvatore and the fountain on the square from which you can enjoy a beautiful view of the lake, a perfect place to take panoramic photos and enter the castle district while walking through the picturesque alleys of the village.

We then come to the oldest heart of the town, the Rocca Monaldeschi della Cervara, which houses the Territorial Museum of Lake Bolsena, with an irregular shape with four towers and fortified walls that immediately takes us back to medieval times. Continuing the discovery of the village among picturesque views and Renaissance palaces, you can admire the famous Medici fountain nicknamed the Fountain of San Rocco because according to the legend, San Rocco, passing through Bolsena, stopped to quench his thirst at the fountain where he wet a wound in his thigh. Who miraculously healed.

From that moment on, the water in the fountain is considered miraculous and is blessed every 16th August during a celebratory mass. We continue among legends and stories of the village until we arrive at the visit of the Cathedral of Santa Cristina, a monumental complex of several buildings with the Romanesque-style Basilica.

The oldest part of the complex consists of the catacombs and the Grotto of Santa Cristina at the center of which is the Altar of the Miracle with the footprints of the Saint. The guided tour ends with a visit to the beautiful Baroque chapel on the left side of the church, the Chapel of the Miracle, which houses the marble of the altar on which the prodigious event connected to the Eucharistic Miracle took place and from which the religious solemnity of Corpus Domini derives.
