Foligno, Umbria with Italy Vacation Specialists

Overview

Discover Foligno: Private Tours, Experiences & Custom Travel

Foligno is a small but thriving city in the region of Umbria approximately 30 minutes south of Perugia.  It is located in the middle of s sprawling valley on a flat area, making it a convenient town to visit that is best explored by foot or bike and it's small enough to see in a few hours.  

Foligno is also about age old traditions, which are still held closely observed. One of the occasions not to be missed is Giostra della Quintana, an equestrian display accompanied by marvelous period costumes, tournaments and medieval gastronomic fare, reliving the 1400s, and which catapults the visitor in to the atmosphere of ancient times.
 
In addition to the local traditions, one is struck by imposing historical buildings such as the Cathedral, the Palazzo Comunale, Palazzo Pretorio, Palazzo Orfini, Palazzo Trinci, the Romanesque Church of St Maria Infraportas, the Abbey of Sassovivo. Foligno is medieval art immersed in unspoilt nature, in the valley where the River Topino flows, a place to relax and reflect which will not easily be forgotten.
