Features and History
* Size and Location: It is the smaller of the two volcanic islands in the lake and has an area of approximately 10.3 hectares. It is clearly visible from the town of Marta.
* Volcanic Origin: Like the lake itself and its larger sister island (Isola Bisentina), Isola Martana was formed by underground volcanic eruptions. Its crescent-shaped shape and steep, north-facing cliffs are testament to its volcanic past.
* Historical Significance: Isola Martana holds a rich and often dark history:
* Saint Christina: According to legend, the relics of Saint Christina were hidden here around 410 AD to protect them from barbarian invasions before eventually being returned to Bolsena.
* Queen Amalasuntha: The island is most famous for the tragic assassination of Amalasuntha, Queen of the Ostrogoths and daughter of Theodoric the Great, in 535 AD. She was reportedly imprisoned and then murdered here on the orders of her cousin and husband, Theodahad. This event served as a pretext for the Byzantine Emperor Justinian to launch the Gothic War to reconquer Italy.
* Monastic past: The island once housed a monastery, which was later abandoned.
* Private property: Today, Isola Martana is privately owned and not open to the public.
