Description

North of Rome, the medieval borgo of Ceri, today a hamlet of Cerveteri, rises on a spur of volcanic tuff rock surrounded by countryside. Founded in 1236 as Caere Novum, to distinguish it from Caere (Cerveteri), it was already inhabited in the 7th century. It passed from the Normanni of Trastevere to the Anguillaras, from the Cesi to the Borromeos, the Odescalchi to the Torlonias and in 1503 was conquered by Cesare Borgia in his fight against the Orsini family. The Church of the Madonna di Ceri, which rises in the centre of the town on the site of a temple to Vesta, holds the remains of the town’s patron saint, Pope Felix II, 4th century antipope, and frescoes of Old Testament scenes and the story of St. Sylvester by the 12th century Roman School.
