Fiuggi

Città di Fiuggi centro storico
Called “Anticoli di Campagna” until 1911 when, with the enhancement of the healing properties of the water and with the inauguration of Fonte Boniface VIII, the name of the town was changed to “Fiuggi.” This initiative was also supported by the chairman of the board in office Giovanni Giolitti, who was a frequent visitor of the town. In this same year, just in Fiuggi was signed the declaration of war against Turkey by Giovanni Giolitti and Foreign Minister Salandra.

The city is divided into two parts that are easily distinguishable:

  • Old Town or City Fiuggi with its medieval village perched on a hill. In the village there is the Palazzo Falconi. Around 1800 in Fiuggi word spread of the arrival of Napoleon (later proved false) and an anonymous painter dedicated him a room in the palace, the Hall Napoleon.
  • Fiuggi Fonte, which extends downstream, in the countryside and surrounded by chestnut woods. In here there are the springs Boniface VIII and Anticolana.
