Itinerary

Perugia

Perugia is a city full of charme and history. Every ancient gate, alley, piazza, palazzo and church will capture your imagination; and every museum and gallery will impress you with a sense of history, culture and art. Perugia is not just a stuffy old showcase of the ancient, it also has a young, vibrant and energetic feel. Perugia is the site of many festivals and concerts, the most important of which are the annual fall Chocolate festival and the summer Umbria Jazz festival, lending the city to a chic and urbane atmosphere unmatched by other Italian cities. Meeting point will be at Piazza Italia, from there we will go first exploring the different strata of Rocca Paolina – the so called 'Perugia underground'. Once back to the city centre, there will be a stop at a famous old fashioned but very traditional coffee shop for an espresso or a cappuccino topped with hand whipped cream. The tour will focus on the Fontana Maggiore together with the other buildings standing in the square.

2 hours
Rocca Paolina

The Rocca Paolina, or Paolina Fortress, is right in the historical centre of Perugia and one can enter via a door at Porta Marzia or the escalator system that connects Piazza Italia with Piazza Partigiani.

30 minutes
Porta Marzia

Porta Marzia is found inserted like blind arc in the masonry of the rocca Paolina, majestic work of architecture cinquecentesca extended on the vast quarter of colle Landone, southern relief on which rises Perugia.

10 minutes
Fontana Maggiore

The upper marble basin has twelve sides divided into twenty-four smooth panels of pink Assisi stone. Each one is separated by an equal number of white Carrara marble statuettes set on ledges between the panels. Some of the figures represent personages from the history of the city and legends, while others are symbolic.

15 minutes
Duomo

The Cathedral of St. Lawrence is located in the historical centre of Perugia on Piazza IV Novembre, its southern façade facing the square.

20 minutes
Arco Etrusco

The Etruscan Arch or of Augustus is one of the seven doors of the Etruscan walls of Perugia. It was constructed in the second half of the III century a.C. and was made to restructure from Augusto in the 40 a.C. after its victory in the war of Perugia.
