Torgiano draws its origins from the legend of Janus, a Roman divinity with two faces, to whom the "Tower of Janus", built in the XIII century, was dedicated. This tower, now known as "Torre Baglioni", not only symbolizes Torgiano, but also bears witness to the presence of an ancient city wall.

Indicated as one of the most beautiful villages in Italy, it stands around beautiful countryside on cycleable and very suggestive roads. You get there via easy climbs and from there you go in many directions. The abundant vineyards that come across embellish the landscape
