In 1465 an event of national importance took place in Subiaco, in the Monastery of Santa Scolastica: two of Gutenberg’s students installed the first Italian printing press in the monastery and, using the new art of movable type printing, printed the first book in Italy.

Anagni is nestled on a hill in the Latina Valley in the Ciociaria area. Also known as the `Città dello Schiaffo’, Anagni was described by the German historian Gregorovius as `one of the most beautiful terraces in Europe’.
Four popes were born in Anagni, also known as the ‘City of Popes’: Pope Boniface VIII, Pope Innocent III, Pope Gregory IX, and Pope Alexander IV.

The city of Anagni is embellished by some of the most beautiful medieval architecture in Italy, such as the Cathedral of Santa Maria Annunziata. It was built between 1071 and 1105 and is one of the most remarkable Romanesque monuments in Lazio. The frescoed crypt is called the ‘Sistine Chapel of the Middle Ages’, one of the most interesting pictorial cycles of the 13th century.

Beautiful visit for the Conversion of Saint Paul (or Conversion of Saul) of Caravaggio at the Odescalchi Balbi Palace. It is one of at least two paintings by Caravaggio of the same subject, the Conversion of Paul. Another is The Conversion of Saint Paul on the Road to Damascus, in the Cerasi Chapel of Santa Maria del Popolo.
