DISCOVERING VIA FRANCIGENA

By car, on foot , by bicycle or on horseback : 380 km of history, culture and architecture .

The story goes that he was Sigerico , Archbishop of Canterbury, who on his way to Rome , marked the beginning of the journey of pilgrimage ; but the origin of the route goes to the Lombards who blazed a safe route for the ancient sea port of Luni and the Tuscia , away from the routes controlled by the Byzantines , their implacable enemies . The route then put in communication with the Mediterranean area of the North Sea and soon became an artery transited by men and goods, thus contributing to the revival of the great European trade.
