Medieval stone village on the slope of the Lepini, with sloping streets, the collegiate church of the Assumption and viewpoints over the Pontine plain as far as the sea.

Sermoneta is a whole medieval village, of grey stone, perched on the slope of the Lepini mountains above the Pontine plain. You can walk round it in a good hour: sloping streets, arches, stairways and small squares, with the Caetani castle at the top.
The walk
Leave the car in the car parks at the entrance and climb through the old town to the collegiate church of Santa Maria Assunta, and from there to the castle. Look out from the viewpoints: below spreads the plain that was the Pontine lagoons, drained in the 1930s, and on clear days you can see the sea and the Circeo promontory. Return by the lower streets, with craft shops and bars.
When
Any weekend of the year. On the days the Garden of Ninfa is open, the village fills up at lunchtime; on weekdays it is very quiet.
