One of the
oldest Umbrian towns, Amelia lays on the top of a rocky hill
overlooking the Tiber valley. Its ancient origins are still
documented by the enormous cyclopean city walls that date
back to the 6th century b.C., formed by huge stones.
Besides the town walls, several monuments
testify the importance of Amelia during the Roman age, such
as the famous bronze statue of “Germanico”, recently found
in the surrounding countryside and currently kept in the
Archeological Museum.
