Acquasparta is a village of about 5,000 in the Terni province of Umbria, located in the picturesque hills of this beautiful region. Its name derives from the Latin ad aquas partas, or “spread out waters,” because the area has always been rich in beneficial water sources. Nearby, we find those of Sangemini and Fabia, both known to all Italians, because we find their water bottled at the supermarket!

Its history is all about the Middle Ages and the Renaissance, with the first attestations in documents dating from 962 AD. Some years later, the abbeys of Saint Barbara and Saint Nicholas were built and the first settlement developed around them.
