Bevagna, Umbria

Explore the Cities and Towns of Umbria

Overview

Bevagna is a town located in the region of Umbria, Italy's Green Heart - some would call it, in the Sagrantino Wine Producing area which has quickly becoming a favorite among wine-lovers visiting Italy.

The history of the town is linked to the Roman era, as can be seen by its position along the Via Flaminia as well as various Imperial ruins such as the Roman theatre dating back to the II century AD, and the remains of mosaics featuring marine animals, probably once part of spa buildings.

If the ancient heart of the city was Roman, what most characterizes Bevagna today is without doubt, the legacy of the Medieval period from the gates of the city, such as Porta San Venanzo, and part of the city wall, still perfectly visible. Well worth a visit are the Medieval church of the Madonna of the Snow, the Church of St Silvestro, the Church of St Michael Arch Angel, the gothic Palazzo dei Consoli and the fountain in Piazza Silvestri.

Visitors to Bevagna enter a world where the historical roots have been carefully preserved and recreated in various festivals and events popular with tourists; such as the Gaite Market, a reenactment of life in the middle ages which shows Bevagna divided into four quarters.

This makes for a great stop for lunch during your visit to the area as it is a town largely untouched by any tourists, with wonderful locals and a welcoming feel. Wonderful and inexpensive accommodations in the area are to be found as well as excellent local guides who can bring you to some of the finest wineries.

As a travel agent, but also a traveler to Italy, thee is no other company I would recommend than the Italy Vacation Specialists. Not only do they really care about what they are doing, they also really know Italy and try to educate many people about ways they can best see the country and not fall into tourist traps. I have been on 4 trips with the IVS team, firstly when they did my first 2 tri ... [Read More]

This company really knows their stuff and recommended our family to stay longer in each location. We didn't listen to them, but wished we had in every single place we went. They recommended Sestri Levante over the Cinque Terre which was our favourite destination on our entire trip. We visited Rome where we stayed in the outstanding Hotel Locorno where they know the owner there, like in every place ... [Read More]

I have traveled to Italy 2x with the IVS for my own pleasure trips and 2x for business with IVS. These guys really pay attention and make your trip go like clockwork. Italy is nuts, just saying! There are so many rules and restrictions now, so we did not want to drive ourselves. Having traveled with them many times and done business on several occasions, most definitely USE this company. They k ... [Read More]

I went to high school with the owner of the company who organized my honeymoon for myself and my now wife from Tokyo. We spent three short weeks seeing Piedmont and experiencing wine paradise there, then heading to Nice in France with our private driver and flying to Rome where honestly 4 days is NOT enough. They keep saying to spend more time and we could not agree more! You need to spend more ti ... [Read More]

In September of 2018 I brought a group of 12 from Venice to Sicily and organized all of my services with the Italy Vacation Specialists. Being a travel agent and in the business, I know how complicated organizing travel arrangements can be in Italy and the IVS team took a huge burden off of me! I would like to start of by saying "THANK YOU" both for the amazing job you did on our trip. There was n ... [Read More]
