    According to tradition, the church was built on the ruins of an Etruscan building not far from the Arch of Augustus. However, the presence of the church has been attested since 1163. Around 1630, the Sylvestrines, Congregazione Silvestrina, moved here from the church of Santa Maria Nuova, which in turn was sold to the Servants of Mary. The church of San Fortunato was rebuilt starting in 1634. After long restoration work following the 1997 earthquake, the church was reopened for worship in 2017 and also became a multipurpose space for cultural activities.

      The Church of San Fortunato is only a small landmark.

      Many tourists would never even notice it, but fortunately, it is located right next to the Etruscan Arch, and most tourists will either walk to the arch or pass by it at some point.

      The Church of San Fortunato was built in 1163 and is one of the oldest churches in Perugia.

      The gabled roof and bell gable are practically all that remain of the medieval church. Most of what you can see today was rebuilt in 1634. The main features—the round-arched entrance and the rose window—were added at that time.
