Note: A rugged and wooded mountain district, Sabina always remained secluded; its peculiar characteristic could be defined as its vocation for isolation. And the face of the capital Rieti and of the main centers is still medieval today: Amatrice and Antrodoco with their Romanesque-Gothic churches, the Franciscan Greccio where the nativity scene was born, Leonessa with its fourteenth-century frescoes, Cittaducale of Angevin foundation and the great abbey of Farfa.
A rugged and heavily wooded mountain region, Sabina has always been something of a world apart; indeed its main characteristic might seem to be a vocation for solitude. The face of its capital, Rieti, and of its main centers is still medieval: Amatrice and Antrodoco with their Romanesque-Gothic churches, the Franciscan shrine of Greccio where the crib was born, Leonessa with its 14th-century frescoes, Cittaducale, founded by the Angevins, and the great abbey of Farfa.
