The Temple of Clitumnus, and the source of the Clitunno River, are within its boundaries. It is also a center for olive oil production. Besides other typical central Italian foods, the local gastronomy includes crayfish and trout.
Disasters
In November 2006, four maintenance workers were killed by a series of explosions while conducting work at an olive oil facility. The factory caught fire after the blasts. Around 500 people were evacuated as a precaution.[3]
