The architectural craftsmanship of Gian Lorenzo Bernini and the imposing Chigi monumental complex define the historic core of Ariccia. Standing out among the Castelli Romani towns, the area is heavily shaped by this seventeenth-century design heritage, alongside the prominent religious presence of the Sanctuary of Santa Maria di Galloro.
Located 25 kilometres southeast of Rome in the Alban Hills, the town is home to 18,311 residents. Positioned entirely within the Parco Regionale dei Castelli Romani, the community—often called 'A Riccia in the local dialect—serves as an elevated, green extension of the capital's suburbs.
