The Etruscan Arch, or better defined as the Monumental Etruscan Gate, was probably built in the 3rd century BC and is located on the north side of the ancient city walls of Perugia that extend for 3 kilometers. The two main gates were the Etruscan Arch, or Arch of Augustus, to the north, and Porta Marzia to the south, which I will tell you about later.

Pozzo Etrusco
The Etruscan Well, located in the historic center of Perugia in the basement of Palazzo Sorbello, was built in the second half of the 16th century and acquired by the Bourbon di Sorbello family in 1780. The palace is currently still owned by their descendants.

Piazza IV Novembre
Piazza IV Novembre represents the true heart of the city: a symbolic and cultural place that has been at the center of political and religious life for centuries. Significant events take place here, such as Umbria Jazz concerts, Eurochocolate stands and conferences during the International Journalism Festival, which hosts important Italian and international journalists.

Perugia Cathedral
The majestic Cathedral of San Lorenzo stands on the site of a previous 12th-century Romanesque church, which in turn occupied an area of the ancient Etruscan and Roman acropolis, now underground. Let's discover this amazing church!

Loggia di Braccio Fortebracci
Braccio Fortebracci da Montone was a skilled and determined leader who managed to expand his dominion over a vast area of central Italy, pushing as far north as Bologna, and in 1416 he obtained control of Perugia after defeating Carlo I Malatesta, chosen by the Church as “Defender of Perugia”. In 1423, a year before his death, Braccio commissioned the Bolognese architect Fioravante to create a loggia overlooking Piazza IV Novembre and including a staircase leading to his stately residence.

Corso Vannucci
Corso Vannucci is the central avenue of Perugia and represents the historical and cultural soul of the city. Named after the great Renaissance painter Pietro Vannucci, known as Perugino, the avenue crosses the historic center and connects Piazza Italia to Piazza IV Novembre.

Rocca Paolina
Rocca Paolina is a historic 16th-century papal fortress. Built by order of Pope Paul III Farnese between 1540 and 1543, the Rocca Paolina represented the papal dominion over Perugia, consolidated after the victorious “Salt War” against the people of Perugia. Designed by the military architect Antonio da Sangallo the Younger, the construction of the fortress entailed the demolition of about a quarter of the city. The structure was divided into two complexes: a larger fortress on the Landone hill and a smaller one, called “Tenaglia”, located lower down and connected to the first by three fortified passages.

Belvedere del Borgobello
The Belvedere del Borgobello is one of the most fascinating panoramic points of Perugia. From here you can admire the buildings, the historic center and the typical Umbrian landscape. It is also a meeting place for young people and families, a typical meeting place for the locals.
