Citerna
In a church in Citerna there is a terracotta Madonna and Child by Donatello. The village sits on top of a hill between two valleys, and the Romans already called it Civitas Sobariae. The churches also hold works by the Della Robbia and a painting that Signorelli started and another painter finished. People who climb up here stop for photos before they even go inside.
About Citerna
The Roman Civitas Sobariae is a unique little village well worth a visit, both for the beauty of its views and for the atmosphere of its narrow lanes and walkways. The town rises between two valleys, the Valtiberina and the Val Cerfone, and the landscapes opening up from its streets and terraces deserve a pause for a few souvenir photos. \
The churches of San Michele Arcangelo and San Francesco house works of undoubted artistic value, such as Donatello's terracotta Madonna and Child, works by the Della Robbia, a painting begun by Signorelli and completed by Tommaso Bernabei, known as Papacello, and the Christ in Glory by Raffaellino del Colle.
