Gubbio and the Ceri Race
For us, Gubbio is very much the iron fist inside Umbria's velvet glove. If you like suits of armour, maces and two handed swords, then this is the place for you. Old Iguvium sits looking down the wide valley and ever since the Eugubini created their '7 bronze tables' in the 300BC, depicting life at the time, the town has retained an architectural and cultural style. The tables were found in 1444 in the area where the original Umbrian population lived and where the historical center is now located. Interestingly, the Romans preferred the open land of the valley. Look…Last modified on 26 May 2013
Valnerina Valley
The Valnerina towards the Monti Sibillini in Le Marche is one of the Appennine's most beautiful valleys in Umbria. Still covered in thick forests the zone touches 2500 metres in altitude. The narrow, harsh upper areas are dotted with castles, bridges, forts and monasteries and was a tough track for travellers until very recently. Even today there are parts of the road which must be taken with great care, especially in winter. In fact, if you find yourself in Ferentillo (below) just outside Terni in January with the whole valley before you and your destination seemingly blocked by the snowy…

Guide to Assisi
Assisi in central Umbria is truly a special place and the tranquil atmosphere of the town relaxes everyone. It is really easy to get there by train. Once at the station just wait for the shuttle bus to take you to the old medieval gates. The birthplace of Saint Francis was added to UNESCO's World Heritage List in 2000, just after the major earthquake made serious ruins of several medieval masterpieces. Painstakingly pieced back together, much is now as it was before. Although who like us saw them before the disaster can only leave with a sense of loss. Nevertheless,…
Saint Valentine's Events in Terni
Saint Valentine is the patron of the city of Terni, Umbria. He was born here at the end of the second century and is buried on a hill outside the city walls where today you will find the Basilica of St. Valentine. The name Valentine comes from the latin 'valere' which means 'feel good' and the Saint was famous among his contemporaries its healing powers through faith. For the origin of Valentine's Day you have to go back to the ancient Romans and Greeks. They used to celebrate rites in honor of their gods Fauno e Luperco on the 15th…
Sanctuary of Madonna dei Bagni
The sanctuary, founded in the seventeenth century, is in the territory of the parish of Casalina town of Deruta (in the province of Perugia). Inside the sanctuary, the walls are covered with numerous panels of great value of Deruta pottery, that citizens have given as "ex voto" for the miracles received. In addition to the extraordinary beauty of each panel, it is interesting to see through the designs what have been miracles over the centuries, up to the first and second World War ... and beyond. THE HISTORY: An episode is almost banal for the origin of this devotion to Madonna…

Pietro Vannucci was a renaissance artist whose life and work were based in Umbria, especially the towns of Città della Pieve (his birthplace), Perugia (his adultlife) and Fontignano (his last years). He was born in 1450, son of a priest. In his early twenties he picked up the nickname 'Il Perugino' which was given to him by his contemporaries in Florence under whose rule Perugia fell.
