Civita di Bagnoregio is a small Italian hill town in the province of Viterbo, in central Italy.
Civita di Bagnoregio is actually two towns.
Once, Civita was the larger community and Bagnoregio the satellite town.
Today, Civita has only about 6 year-round residents determined to keep this little fragment of rock alive.

Civita di Bagnoregio was founded by the Etruscans about 2.500 years ago.
The continuous seismic activities that followed in the course of the centuries, brought a long series of landslides.
Its only recently that Civita began experiencing a tourist revival.
Civita is a charming medieval town with architecture spanning several hundred years.
Despite its nickname, during the tourist season, Civita bustles with day trippers.
