The Roman Theater of Spoleto is one of the most important Roman monuments in the city and represents a significant testimony to the cultural life of ancient Spoletium. It was built in the 1st century BC, in an area near the forum, according to the architectural models of classical Roman theater. The cavea, built against the natural slope of Sant'Elia Hill, was divided into sectors and could accommodate several thousand spectators. Opposite were the orchestra and the monumental stage, originally decorated with columns, niches, and statues, which served as a backdrop for theatrical and musical performances. The building was constructed of masonry and clad in local stone, with technical solutions that ensured good acoustics. After the end of the Roman era, the theater was gradually abandoned and was partially incorporated into medieval buildings. The area was restored in the 20th century, restoring the structure's visibility and highlighting its archaeological importance. Today, the Roman Theatre is part of the National Archaeological Museum of Spoleto and continues to serve a cultural purpose, hosting events and performances that renew the city's connection to its thousand-year-old theatrical tradition.

Detouring a few kilometers from the Assisi-Spoleto cycle path, you can visit the village of Trevi, perched on a hill surrounded by olive trees! The climb isn't easy, but it's worth it for the sweeping views and the truly picturesque village. It still retains architectural elements of the old Jewish quarter, fabulous 🚴😍👍

Spello's historic center is an elegant and well-preserved medieval village. It's definitely worth a visit.

Trevi, picturesque and simply beautiful location!

Villa Fidelia stands on a sacred complex of the classical era, it seems to have origins dating back to the 4th century AD, a place to celebrate scenic games and gladiators. Decayed after the barbarian invasions, with the 16th century the Urbani occupied the area of the ancient sanctuary and decided to build a "Villa". Villa Fidelia over the centuries has undergone profound modifications, renovations and expansions based also on the various changes of ownership, until it had its current conformation, which should date back to the mid 1800s. In addition to the main building, the baroque garden is also worth admiring.

The town lies on a hill, with a central castle and a double concentric circle of houses. The castle of Armenzano has ancient origins, and is worth a short stop
