Twin towns

edit

Verghereto is twinned with the following towns:

  •   Source-Seine, France, since 2002. Verghereto was originally a twin town of Saint-Germain-Source-Seine prior to the commune's fusion with Blessey on 1 January 2009 to form Source-Seine, when Verghereto became a twin town of Source-Seine. The commune of Saint-Germain-Source-Seine and the commune of Verghereto signed a friendship charter in 2001 and a sister town agreement in 2002. As the source of the Tiber is located in Verghereto and the source of the Seine is located in Source-Seine, the partnership is therefore between two communes which contain the sources of rivers that traverse European capital cities.
  •   Melissano, Italy, since 2007
