Today is dedicated to visit the beautiful Medieval villages of the area and enjoy the local food and lifestyle. An easy drive amongst vineyards and olive groves will take you to the village of Montefalco, called the balcony of Umbria, known for its unique location that offers a breathtaking 360° view of the Umbrian Valley and the Sagrantino grapes. This hilltop town is still surrounded by the medieval walls. The main monument is the Church of Saint Francis with the famous Renaissance frescoes by Benozzo Gozzoli and Perugino.
After the visit of Montefalco we will arrange a wine tour in a winery that produces Sagrantino di Montefalco DOCGS. You will have a guided tour of the vineyard, cellars finishing up with a test of local Umbrian specialties and the wines.
After you will drive to Bevagna a charming ancient medieval town that lies on a fertile plain, close to the Via Flaminia. You will admire: Piazza S. Silvestro, the main square surrounded by two Romanesque style jewels: the Church of San Michele and the Church of San Silvestro, both facing the 13th-century Palazzo dei Consoli; The Church of Sant’Agostino, with the annexed monastery, where you can admire some significant votive frescoes of Umbrian school. Bevagna is famous for its Mercato delle Gaite an event held each year in June, for 10 days the village is literally transformed in a old medieval village, where every aspect of daily life is reproduced like it was in medieval times.
