Located near the village of Spina, the Rocca di Sant'Apollinare is a place rich in history and timeless images.

Antognolla Castle, located on the slopes of Monte Tezio and now part of an exclusive golf club, owes its name to the ancient Antognolla family of Perugia. First mentioned in 1174 for the presence of a Benedictine monastery, it became a fiefdom in 1399 at the behest of Pope Boniface IX. Over the following centuries, it was at the center of conflicts between noble families, until it passed to the Oddi family in 1628 and then to the Guglielmi family in 1836. After a period under the Agnelli family, it was recently restored to become a luxury resort.

Rocca di Passignano (Castle of Passignano) - Passignano sul Trasimeno The Rocca di Passignano (Castle of Passignano) is located inside the village, in an elevated position above the town, which later expanded to the lakeshore. According to some sources, Passignano could mean "place of the pass," referring to the existence of a Roman military structure that served to control a "pass" between the present-day regions of Umbria and Tuscany. Nothing remains of this possible structure today. Currently, the castle consists of ruins of medieval structures: square walls, a half-ruined tower, and the northern part of the castle with a triangular tower. Furthermore, a series of alleys wind through this part of the historic center, once surrounded by walls, giving an idea of what the street layout within the castle might have looked like. The oldest core probably dates back to the 5th or 6th century; The square walls, however, were built between 820 and 850, when the castle belonged to the Marquises of Tuscany. In 1187, the property became the property of the canons of the Cathedral of San Lorenzo in Perugia. In the 13th century, the castle underwent significant renovations, transforming it into a true fortress, an outpost, and defensive bastion of the Perugian territory.
