Tra il IX e il VI secolo a. C. fu sede della<br />
raffinata civiltà Villanoviana che ha<br />
lasciato oggetti <strong>di</strong> rara bellezza oggi<br />
conservati nel Museo Civico<br />
Archeologico Villanoviano. Il centro<br />
storico mantiene intatta la sua origine<br />
me<strong>di</strong>oevale e l’intero territorio è ricco <strong>di</strong><br />
testimonianze: necropoli e siti<br />
archeologici con scavi ancora in atto,<br />
antiche pievi, chiese e conventi che<br />
conservano rarità come il secolare<br />
cipresso <strong>di</strong> San Francesco.<br />
Between the 9 th and 6 th centuries B.C.,<br />
the town was the centre of the refined<br />
Villanovan civilisation, which left behind<br />
some particularly beautiful objects, now<br />
preserved in the Villanovan<br />
Archaeological Municipal Museum. The<br />
old town has preserved its me<strong>di</strong>eval<br />
origins and the whole area is rich in<br />
historic remains. There’s a necropolis<br />
and archaeological sites with<br />
excavations that are still open, ancient<br />
parish churches and monasteries that<br />
house rarities, such as the ancient<br />
cypress of St. Francis.<br />
