Gubbio is one of the most beautiful medieval cities in the world, built entirely of stone and beautifully preserved. Founded by the Umbrian people with the name of Ikuvium, it soon became one of the most important religious and political centers in the area. Under the dominion of the Romans the importance of Gubbio increased again as demonstrated by the ruins of finely decorated patrician villas and by the presence of an imposing Roman theater. The Roman city was destroyed by the Goths and it will be necessary to wait until the 13th century before its fortunes rise again. The present urban aspect and some of the most important buildings such as the cathedral, the Palazzo dei Consoli and the Palazzo del Podestà are due to this period.

The medieval town of Gubbio has almost completely preserved its appearance. The city walls, which still run around the historic center with buildings from different eras - from the Middle Ages to the Renaissance - on the beautiful slopes of the mountain, are architecturally unique, embedded in a landscape and a panorama that takes the visitor's breath away.

A legend tells of the taming of the "Wolf of Gubbio" by Francis of Assisi. The wolf is considered an attribute of Francis.
