On the trailThe terraced sanctuary of Fortuna Primigenia at Praeneste
Modern Palestrina is built on and around the terraces of ancient Praeneste.

On the trailA private Barberini residence standing above the sanctuary of Fortuna Primigenia, opened on set Sundays. Not a museum: a house, with the Ninfeo and the Salone di Urbano VIII still inside it.
The doors open on booked dates only, so the visit has to be arranged before you set off rather than found on the day.
Palestrina at its real position from Rome, with everywhere else we list behind it — so you can see how far out this one is.
