About City
Civitavecchia
Civitavecchia is a town and commune of the province of Rome. Civitavecchia means “ancient town”.
The modern city was built certainly over a pre-existing Etruscan settlement. The harbor was constructed by the Emperor Trajan at the beginning of the 2nd century. The first occurrence of the name Centum Cellae is from a letter by Pliny the Younger (AD 107). In the high Middle Ages, Centumcellae was a Byzantine stronghold. During World War II, Civitavecchia was severely damaged by Allied bombings, which caused a lot of victims among the civilians.
The massive Forte Michelangelo (“Michelangelo’s fort”) was first commissioned from Bramante by Pope Julius II, to defend the port of Rome, and was completed in 1535. The upper part of the “maschio” tower, however, was designed by Michelangelo, whose name is generally applied to the fortress.
