Farnese is a typically medieval village, rising on a tuffaceous spur, west of Lake Bolsena.
The landscape that opens up in front of Farnese is very picturesque and faces in the south-eastern part Valle Cupa, a hilly area of tuffaceous origin. All around, the town is surrounded by lush vegetation, including the Lamone, a dense forest rich in plant and animal species.
The centre of Farnese is rich in buildings and remains from medieval times, including the famous 'pozzi da butto', large cylindrical wells dug directly into the tuff.
Like many of the towns in Tuscia, which rise on tuffaceous hills, Farnese is also subject to erosion due to the basement of the tuffaceous block on which the town rests. Many consolidation works have been carried out and are still in progress to fortify the basement.
There are many events that characterise the village, some of which include the Shepherd's Festival, the Beer Festival and Farnese in fiore.
A curiosity, due to its characteristics as a perfectly preserved medieval village, Farnese was chosen by director Luigi Comencini as the set for some shots of the screenplay Pinocchio.
