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.

Rocca Sonora, the undisputed symbol of Gualdo Cattaneo.

The castle is located on a rocky peak, making the construction of a motte unnecessary. The walls are protected by square corner towers. The large keep and the walls date back to the castle's early days. The battlements and machicolations attached to the walls are clearly visible. On the first floor of the palace there is a large ballroom with rich decorations. The inner courtyard is quite small in relation to the entire complex. In the middle of the 15th century, Giacomo Piccinino built a twelve-sided tower to the west of the castle on a wall with a battlement. The last extension took place in 1538. A round bastion was built at the entrance, which could accommodate artillery.

Bogo dominating the Puglia valley, a tributary of the Tiber; very well renovated, it is surrounded by mighty fifteenth-century walls

The Rocca Borgia (or Rocca Sonora) is the true protagonist of the village of GualdoCattaneo. The direct link with a famous figure like Alessandro Borgia and its singularity on an architectural level make this building truly unique in the Umbrian defensive panorama. It was built between 1494 and 1498, designed by Francesco di Bartolomeo da Pietrasanta according to the military canons of the time, which with the advent of artillery were substantially changing the appearance of all the defensive structures. It is a triangular fortress with a central keep and two lateral walls communicating with each other through a complex system of underground tunnels.

Gualdo Cattaneo is a small medieval village perched on the slopes of the Martani Mountains in a particularly suggestive position.  The first historical information about the town dates back to the time of Emperor Otto II, who founded the castle in 975, entrusting it as a fief to the Germanic count Edoardo Cattaneo. Its perched position was militarily strategic and very often at the center of bitter disputes and domination between Foligno and Spoleto. In the main square of the village stands the mighty fortress from 1494, triangular in shape with three towers communicating with each other. The 13th century parish church is interesting. with a beautiful thirteenth-century crypt inside; the church of Sant'Agostino built in 1136 with frescoes from the Foligno school and the church of Sant'Andrea.

In my opinion, together with Spello, the most beautiful village in the eastern Umbrian Valley
