The city is well maintained and welcoming with a beautiful historic center and a modern part which has undergone constant development in recent years. The ancient city of Tuscania was already inhabited by the Etruscans, rich and important, it made use of maritime trade through the port of Montalto di Castro. The Romans conquered it in the III century. BC and marked a road that took the name of Clodia.
Over time the city revived and the inhabited center began to expand on the current plateau, but already in 574 it was conquered by the Lombards during their descent towards Rome.
Charlemagne conquered it in 774 and donated it to the Church which took control of it. Nonetheless, Tuscania was repeatedly undermined by the families of tyrants who fought over the various fiefdoms and it was for this reason that it elected itself a free municipality. During the fifteenth century. the card. Giovanni Vitelleschi, hired by the Holy See to restore order and possession of its territories, conquered the great walls and definitively expelled the tyrants. During successive invasions and consequent destructions, the city lost many beauties, but the coup de grace came in 1971, when a violent earthquake destroyed many houses, churches and important buildings. Everything has been rebuilt with great care, but inevitably the face of the city has underwent profound changes.
Nevertheless there remain countless testimonies, the Etruscan necropolis, the medieval center and the large perimeter walls miraculously still erected. At the peak of Etruscan power, the city, together with the nearby Tarquinia, was a strategic point along the commercial routes of southern Etruria and extended up to the hill where St. Peter's basilica stands today. Here it is thought there was the acropolis of the Etruscan city. Even in Roman times it maintained the characteristic of extending over seven hills, just like Rome. Tuscania progressively assumes a hegemonic role over the whole surrounding area, arriving to extend its influence up to Viterbo, which was subdued as a castle of the city in 1207 and was pervaded by a great artistic and architectural fervour, favored by the repopulation and by the presence inside the walls of many religious orders, among which the mendicant orders of the Franciscans and the Augustinians.
The history of Tuscania begins from the final phase of the Bronze Age. The course of the Marta river and its tributaries are the pole of attraction of the first archaic settlements in the area, which settled on the natural reliefs formed by the erosion of the waters.
Starting from the 7th century. BC, clearly identified by their respective necropolises, seven settlements are defined, located on the high ground that winds south and north of the present hill of S. Pietro
