Roseto Botanico Carla Fineschi

Established in 1967, the Carla Fineschi Botanical Rose Garden houses rose species and hybrids from all over the world. It is a non lucrative, unique, private collection which aims to maintain a scientific collection of roses. The Cavriglia Rose Garden came to life thanks to Prof. Gianfranco Fineschi, a professor at the faculty of medicine at the Cattolica University of Rome. Overtime the garden and has improved and is constantly expanding with new species.
The garden is open from the first Sunday in May to the last Sunday of June. There is a small entrance fee which goes to maintain the garden.
