Via Milano, 13, Monte Romano

Monte Romano sits on the low agricultural hills of northern Viterbo province in Lazio, in the coastal Maremma-Lazio landscape. Tarquinia is within about 12 km: its Etruscan necropolis and painted tombs are part of the UNESCO World Heritage listing 'Etruscan Necropolises of Cerveteri and Tarquinia', and the town has a national archaeological museum. The immediate surroundings are a matrix of arable fields, olive groves, small vineyards and patches of Mediterranean scrub and oak woodland. There are no named mountain ranges or ski facilities within 15 km; the terrain is low hills and coastal plain. Local services and shops are concentrated in nearby Tarquinia; the provincial capital Viterbo lies farther inland and provides larger-city services. The area is known for Etruscan archaeology and for agricultural products such as olives, cereals and some wine.
