Alba Fucens

On Sunday, a car trip over the Lazio border to Abruzzo.



The first stop is Alba Fucens (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alba_Fucens), which is about 800 meters above the sea level, in the Apennines.



A 13-th century church of San Pietro





The church was destroyed by an earthquake in 1915, then restored in 1957. We didn't go to the excavations of the Roman city below -- just took a good look from above.
