The Via Francigena is the ancient road that connected Canterbury to Puglia in Italy. Once it was used by merchants, nobles and religious, nowadays it was rediscovered by pilgrims from all over the world who choose to know Italy from a different point of view. The itinerary of Via Francigena we know today, was influenced by Sigerico the Archbishop of Canterbury who went through the this ancient road in 990 a.C. from Canterbury to Rome and wrote down the places where he stopped.
