Civitavecchia: Loosen up unwind in the “Ancient town”
Civitavecchia is located in the center of Rome’s region of Lazio. The port was also known as “Port of Rome” and it was an eyewitness to Civitavecchia growth and history. In the second century, construction of the harbour started under Emperor Trajan and it became a Byzantine stronghold until the Pope took control in the year 728. From that moment, several assaults were encountered by Civitavecchia seeking to take over its control. It was taken over by French empire in 1806 and papal control was totally removed in 1870. The rich history makes Civitavecchia a place to visit and a gateway for cruise tours.
