Osteria al Forno di Agnese: A Story of Civita

"Have you ever seen Miyazaki's Howl's Moving Castle?" After walking across the 300 meter suspended bridge leading to Civita di Bagnoregio, this was the first sentence we heard from a local tour guide. It was followed by a smile and an invitation "You can join us if you want, it's free." We already had plans for the day, so we politely declined. Yet the gesture immediately conveyed something important about Civita. Despite receiving hundreds of thousands of visitors each year, it remains a place where hospitality feels genuine.

Safeguarding Three Thousand Years of History

"Over the next ten years, we have the responsibility to safeguard three thousand years of history." When Cristiano Germani says these words, he is not talking about archaeology. He is not referring to museums or monuments. He is talking about something infinitely more fragile. Italy's heritage is made up of castles, churches, Renaissance palaces, and priceless works of art. Then came modernity. We digitized everything, accelerated everything, globalized everything. Today we can cross the planet in a matter of hours, buy the same products almost anywhere, and enjoy the same flavors in virtually every city in the world.
