バスティア・ウンブラの天然記念物・トップ12

Franziskusweg沿いの良い休憩所です。避難小屋で宿泊することも可能です。この水源は公式には飲料水として表示されておらず、飲むことは禁止されていますが、私は今も元気です。夜遅くにこれを書いていますが、今日の正午頃にそこから約1.5リットルの水を飲みました。

サッソ・ピアノという名の頂上に立つ、クロチェ・ディ・サッソ・ピアノと呼ばれるこの小さな聖なる記念碑の前で、ここに立ち寄る人々にアッシジの聖フランチェスコについての短い考察を捧げたいと思います。 + 「そして私たちはあなた[神の父]に感謝します、…あなたの十字架と血と死によって、囚われていた私たちを贖いたかったからです。」 (NbR XXIII, 3)

There is an old well here with a nymph in it. Unfortunately the water is not drinkable

Rightly considered one of the most beautiful fountains in Italy, the Fontana Maggiore of Perugia is located in the center of Piazza IV Novembre and, together with the surrounding buildings, helps to define a whole of the highest cultural and aesthetic value. The sculptural decoration of the fountain, to which Nicola and Giovanni Pisano contributed, is impressive. The panels represent realities of all kinds, historical and biblical figures, the cycle of the months of the year, the liberal arts and other cultural elements of great importance in medieval culture (and beyond).

Built between 1254 and 1278, the Fontana Maggiore is one of the most precious works of architecture from the Commune era. Sculpted by Nicola and Giovanni Pisano, father and son, with the help of Frà Bevignate, and with the hydraulic part set up by Boninsegna Veneziano, the fountain consists of two polygonal concentric marble basins and a bronze cup. The decorations on the outside of the basins recall the political and cultural structure in Perugia, celebrating the foundation of the city and the role it played in the entire region. The lower basin has a total of 24 different sides, divided by strips of three small columns. Each side contains a pair of bas-reliefs depicting different situations and contexts, starting with the months of the year, represented by a particular event in the corresponding month, which is generally an agricultural craft or a context from a specific period.

The Fontana Maggiore, located in the center of Piazza IV Novembre, is the symbolic monument of the city of Perugia. Built by Umberto the Master, between 1278 and 1280, to celebrate the arrival of water in the acropolis of the city, thanks to the new aqueduct.

summit of Mount Subasio. 360° panoramic view

The mountain Monte Subasio, the local mountain of Assisi, is about 1,290 meters high and is an ancient and mystical mountain. Since early Christian times, its caves have been home to many ascetics and hermits, and its forests have been crossed by monks who settled there over time. Of course, among these monks was Saint Francis. The mountain has a “rounded top”, a huge summit plateau and this offers a breathtaking panoramic view that is second to none. During our hike in October 2023, we were even able to see wild horses in the wild up there.
