(12,91 square km with 1291 inhabitants: Cellenesi)
The old hamlet is by now uninhabited and it is located on the top of the hill , a little far from the new Celleno. The old hamlet consists mainly
of small red tuff houses, without plaster, for the most part in ruins, because they were abandoned after the disastrous earthquakes that caused great
damage to the village. Some finds testify the presence of the first settlements dating back to the 13th century B.C., but probably the area was already
inhabited in the Neolitic age as it is proved by the finding of stone weapons dating back to that period. Celleno is located in a strategic position and being
on the road for Viterbo , it was invaded by the Romans that seized it in 264 B.C. throwing the Etruscans out. Later it was attacked and sacked by the Goths,
the Longobards and the Byzantines.
PLACES TO VISIT
Castle Orsini
Unlike the historical centre, the imposing building seems to have passed unharmed
through the terrible telluric shocks that have threatened the hamlet several times and it shows its majestic grandeur.
The mediaeval hamlet
By now uninhabited, it is located on the hill and it is isolated from the new village.
