View of Isola Bisentina

Highlight • Viewpoint

Isola Bisentina in Lake Bolsena: This is the larger of the two islands and was historically significant. It is home to several chapels and gardens. Public access is not always available, but boat tours often offer the opportunity to see the island from the water.

Lake Bolsena

Highlight • Lake

Lake Bolsena is a large volcanic lake in central Italy, about 90 km north of Rome in the province of Viterbo, Lazio. It is a popular tourist destination, known for its natural beauty, clear waters, and relaxed atmosphere.
The lake was formed by the collapse of a caldera of the Vulsini volcano. This geological history contributes to its black volcanic beaches, some of which are black in color. Lake Bolsena is known for its clean, spring-fed waters, which are excellent for swimming. The shores often slope gently, making it suitable for families with children. The lake has two islands, Bisentina and Martana, formed by underwater eruptions. Public access to the islands may be limited, but boat tours often offer views of them.

Marta Town Hall

Highlight • Monument

The old town hall of Marta (VT), composed of two distinct and adjacent buildings, was demolished in 1926 and the current one was built in its place, completed in 1929 as can be read in the architrave of the central window on the first floor.
The project was drawn up by the engineer Daniele Manini while the facade was designed by the architect Fasolo, reported to the mayor by Corrado Ricci, general director of Fine Arts.
Above the door is set the travertine coat of arms of Pope Paul III Farnese, previously placed on the facade of the old town hall and recovered during the demolition works. During the renovation, the ancient "Porta grande della Strada della Marta" that led into the historic center was modified and was replaced by the current portico.


The stone arch that surrounded it is today clearly visible in a building at no. 141 of via Laertina. In the council chamber there is a valuable large painting by Wolf Voight that depicts, synthetically, the feast of the Madonna del Monte.
Under the portico of the town hall (which the Martani call Le Porte) there is, on the left, a large work in wood and plaster in bas-relief painted by Alberto Morucci, inaugurated in the early 90s, which also depicts the feast of the Madonna del Monte.
To the right and left of the town hall we find Palazzo Ciotti and Palazzo Tarquini, both from the 1500s.

The Lungolago Amalasunta in Marta is a pleasant walk overlooking the waters of Lake Bolsena, in one of the villages that best preserves the tradition of lake fishing. The path runs along the harbor and the beach, where you can observe the typical fishing boats pulled up to shore or moored along the pier.

These traditional boats, with their low, elongated profile and raised bow and stern, have a very ancient design, developed over the centuries to move easily through the lake and facilitate net work. Alongside the boats, you can often see the fishermen's nets, spread out to dry in the sun or collected on the docks. Among these are the martavelli, special conical traps with internal chambers that guide the fish inside without allowing them to escape.

From the natural beach between Capodimonte and Marta, a staircase leads over the rocks, when you come down on the other side you have this view of Marta.
