Civita di Bagnoregio (Italian pronunciation: [ˈtʃiːvita di ˌbaɲɲoˈrɛːdʒo]) is an outlying village of the comune (municipality) of Bagnoregio in the Province of Viterbo in central Italy. It lies 1 kilometre (0.6 mi) east of the town of Bagnoregio and about 120 kilometres (75 mi) north of Rome.
The only access is a footbridge from the nearby town, with a toll introduced in 2013. Because of the toll, communal taxes were abolished in Civita and nearby Bagnoregio. Due to its unstable foundation that often erodes, Civita is famously known as "the dying city". It is one of I Borghi più belli d'Italia ("The most beautiful villages of Italy").
