ベヴァーニャの歴史的建造物群は必見です。しかし、際立っているのは、そこかしこに漂う中世の雰囲気です。

Piazza Garibaldi in Bevagna is an elegant agora that combines the charm of medieval history with the vitality of the present. Andrea Roggi's work stands out in this setting: a majestic bronze Tree of Life whose gnarled roots intertwine with stylized human figures in a universal embrace. The sculpture harmoniously dialogues with the surrounding architecture, symbolizing rebirth and the profound connection between humanity and nature. It is a reflective resting place where contemporary aesthetics enhance the ancient beauty of the Umbrian village.

One of the few bridges that cross the Topino river is located in Cannara, the next one in Passaggio di Bettona, the previous one much further away, even in Bevagna

Bevagna / Region – Umbria / Province – Perugia (PG) The town, surrounded by a city wall with towers and gates, has an intact medieval structure (12th-13th centuries). In the upper part of the town, numerous Roman remains can still be seen: the ruins of a temple, the theater, and a thermal bath complex, of which a frigidarium with a magnificent black and white floor mosaic depicting marine figures from the 2nd century AD survives. The medieval town structure, with its squares and noble houses, developed over the Romanesque foundations: The magnificent Piazza Silvestri is home to the Palazzo dei Consoli (1270), which houses the Torti Theater, the Romanesque churches of San Silvestro and San Michele Arcangelo, both from the late 12th century, and the church of San Domenico e Giacomo (1291). Worth seeing is the Palazzo Comunale (late 18th century), which houses the historical archives, the library, and the art gallery. The Baroque churches of the Monastery of Santa Margherita and San Filippo are also very interesting. At the highest point in the town stands the Church of San Francesco (late 13th century). Next to the altar, one can see the stone on which St. Francis knelt when he preached to the flock of birds at Pian d'Arca. The 18th-century Palazzo Lepri houses the Museum of Bevagna, with works that tell the story of the town from pre-Roman times to the 18th century: archaeological finds from the ancient city of Mevania, medieval documents, and paintings by Dono Doni, Fantino, and Corrado Giaquinto. In the surrounding area, the Sanctuary of Madonna delle Grazie (late 16th century), the Sanctuary of Madonna della Valle, and the Monastery of Annunziata (11th century), formerly a defensive castle, rise up against the hillsides.

trail not mapped on koomot branches off into the woods and then descends into the valley...very suggestive, does not present great difficulties...the surface of the path is stable and earthy except for a few stretches..highly recommended

This church in Bevegna has a patronal name that is truly on everyone's lips, but only a few will know the person behind it: San SILVESTRO's feast day is December 31st. He lived at the end of the third and beginning of the fourth century and was Bishop of Rome when Emperor Constantine recognized Christianity as a religion with the Edict of Milan - known as the "Edict of Toleration" - and thus ended (at least temporarily) the period of bloody persecution of Christians.

Particularly charming in the medieval village of Bevagna is the old washhouse and the masonry bridge over the river Topino. When the sky is blue and the water is stagnant, the green algae on the surface of the water are particularly photogenic on sunny summer days.

This church was featured on one of the old lira banknotes and was visited by Prince Charles after the 1997 earthquake. It is beautiful in its simplicity with its tower on the front and side. The interior with the crypt is very interesting. The best photos of the church are from the steps of the theater opposite.
