Umbria is famous for its cities of art and for the richness of its historical and cultural heritage. In the heart of this beautiful region, in the province of Terni, there is Narni, an enchanting Umbrian village famous for being the geographical center of Italy, for the massive Albornotz Fortress that overlooks it, and for having inspired C.S. Lewis in the creation of his Chronicles of Narnia.

Discovering Narni

The origins of Narni date back to ancient times: the area on which the village stands is inhabited since Neolitic times; conquered by the Romans around 300 BC, it took the name of Narnia, and then became Narni.
