Situated in Campagnano, 35 kilometers from Rome and 40 kilometers from Viterbo along the State highway SS 2 Casia.
The racetrack, once a horse track, held its first car race on a sandy track on December 9th, 1951 and after its initial success, the transformation became complete in 1957.

New Palace of Justice Viterbo

The recent construction of this building was completed in 2004 by a design done by architect Bakducci.
It was developed on four floors with a total area surface of 25,000 sq. meters and contains a tribune, offices of District attornies, Justice of the Peace, Superintendents of U.N.E.P. and the order of Advocates.
The building holds nine courtrooms ,a Court of Assizes, studies of Civil and Penal judges, two large civil halls for labour audiences and real estate auctions, ample clerk’s offices and three libraries.
The new Palace of Justice has been qualified for its advanced technology of security and for its modern information technology with a network connecting the entire judicial apparatus, including unattached sections. Work on the new Palace started in 1982 but was interrupted just two years later up until 2001 when the old project was updated and work was begun again.
Benefits of the plan were the slimming of bureaucracies derived from the fact that numerous offices, once fragmented in four different places in Viterbo, were united under one roof. Costs for this avant-garde structure were approximately fifteen million euro.
