몬테 산타 마리아 티베리나‬에서 가장 멋진 ‪8‬개의 동굴

Piazza Baldaccio, the start and finish of the Intrepida, a historic cycling event held in Anghiari in October.

Worth a visit among the alleys of the historic center!!

Little square

The square crowded with intrepid aspirants is always suggestive. A few minutes before the start the town band plays the Italian anthem, which is very popular; it is a sort of wish for a beautiful Giro

And in the autumn there is the "intrepida", a cycling race on gravel roads with older bikes (before 1985). A great event for cycling enthusiasts!

Historic center

City of the famous battle of Anghiari.

The small medieval village of Monte Santa Maria Tiberina occupies a panoramic position on a hill overlooking the plain of the Aggia stream, from where you can enjoy a splendid view of the Umbrian and Tuscan Valtiberina. Starting from the 11th century it was a fief of the Marquises Bourbon del Monte, descendants of those Marquises del Colle who came to Italy following the Franks and conquered a large part of the Upper Tiber Valley, building fortresses and castles in various strategic points. After the castle was destroyed (1198) due to disagreements with Pope Innocent III, the Marquises rebuilt it by linking their history to that of Monte Santa Maria Tiberina, they obtained concessions and privileges from popes and emperors, managing to remain independent. The marquisate was governed by the descendants of the family until 1815, when Duke Ferdinando of Tuscany took possession of it, interrupting the millenary dominion of the Bourbon del Monte. In 1859 it became part of the Kingdom of Italy.
