Trevi nel Lazio (in Antiquity, Treba Augusta), is an ancient town in the upper valley of the Aniene river. It is 17 km by road NE of Fiuggi and 23 km (14 mi) by road SE of Subiaco, the nearest larger towns. An old arch within the territory of the comune is said to be Roman, and some remains of the ancient acropolis have survived, but otherwise Trevi's monuments are medieval.
