The archaeological site of Carsulae

The city of Carsulae was probably founded around the end of the 3rd century BC, with the conclusion of the Romanisation of Umbria, which was followed by the construction of the western part of the Via Flaminia in 220 BC.

The Republican period is currently the least known period, as the city underwent grand monumentalisation during the Augustan era, giving it the appearance that we can still appreciate today and which overlapped the earlier phase. 

The city experienced a very prosperous period for most of the imperial era, as indicated by the available epigraphic evidence, until the beginning of the 4th century AD. From that moment on, it began a slow decline that culminated in the abandonment of the centre by the beginning of the 5th century AD at the latest, as demonstrated by recent excavation campaigns. 

The reason for this can be traced to the absence of defensive walls and the site's poor defensibility at the time when Rome could no longer guarantee any kind of security.
At present, only a small part has been excavated, mainly carried out by Umberto Ciotti between 1951 and 1972. 

The Visitor and Documentation Centre, dedicated to Ciotti, houses the entrance ticket office and a selection of artefacts found during his excavation campaigns.
