This is one of the many ancient mills found along the region's waterways. It's one of those monuments that reminds us of how life was lived in Italy until recently.

Bettona is a characteristic Umbrian village. Built on a cliff, it offers a splendid panoramic view: on one side, the Martani Mountains, and on the other, the Umbrian Valley, stretching from Perugia to Spoleto.

Located outside the city walls, the watchtower of the Castrum Torsciani, with its majestic mass, represents the emblem of the medieval city; until the mid-15th century, it constituted the entrance to a customs area, where goods and products from a vast area of central Italy converged on ships bound for Rome via the Tiber.

A charming medieval village, located directly opposite Mount Subasio. It can be reached from the plain below, accessed via the road from Bettona to Bevagna.

Right where the Ponte Vecchio, symbol of the populous Ponte San Giovanni neighborhood, was rebuilt, the Tiber cycle/pedestrian path begins, which runs along the river and reaches Ponte Pattoli and beyond.

Basilica of Santa Maria degli Angeli The small chapel of Santa Maria degli Angeli alla Porziuncola, still completely preserved inside the basilica, was, according to tradition, built by four soldiers returning from the Holy War in the wooded plain below Assisi, known as the Cerretto della Porziuncola. They brought a piece of the Madonna's tombstone with them. There, on certain autumn days, the strong wind that blew every cloud from the sky and through the leaves seemed similar to the song of angels. The chapel was administered by the Benedictine monks of the monastery of Santa Benedetto al Subasio since the 10th century. This place would probably have been completely forgotten if the paths of Francis and Clare had not led there. Thanks to them, we find the Porziuncola intact today, just as it was a good 1,000 years ago. But instead of the noisy thicket, there is now a large basilica, built between the 16th and 17th centuries, which envelops and protects the chapel like a caring mother. This view from within the building makes the chapel seem even smaller, almost impossibly small. The church was given to the poor saint by the aforementioned Benedictine monks to establish the headquarters of the newly founded Franciscan order. When Francis first came here, the church was in disrepair, and according to his saintly legend, he dedicated the third year after his conversion exclusively to the renovation of the small chapel. It was here, while reading the Gospel, that he realized that his mission was not to restore dilapidated religious buildings, but to rebuild and preach the entire Kingdom of God by living in poverty, penance, and simplicity. From here, Francis and his confreres set out to spread his message throughout Italy, and here they returned again and again. One night in 1211, a desperate and frightened Chiara d'Offreduccio, who had fled her home and her aristocratic family, knocked on the doors of Porciuncola.
