Ronciglione (Italian pronunciation: [rontʃiʎˈʎoːne]; locally Ronció) is a comune in the province of Viterbo, in the Italian region of Latium, about 20 kilometres (12 mi) from Viterbo. The city is located in the Cimini mountains, over two tuff scarps, on the southeastern slope of the former volcano crater now housing Lake Vico.
It is one of I Borghi più belli d'Italia ("The most beautiful villages of Italy").[3] The city's economy is based largely on agriculture, with production of nuts, chestnuts and wine.
