Within the city of Perugia, the lovely capital of the region of Umbria, one finds incredible architectural sights and artistic wonders, as well as so much more.
Based primarily around Corso Vannucci, Perugia’s old city holds many treasures. One of which is the Fontana Maggiore which can be found within the north end of the historic section, within Piazza IV Novmembre. On the opposite end, one views the 15th century Duomo and its marvelous statue of Pope Julius II, a pulpit that had been constructed for Siena’s San Bernardino, and the intriguing Cappella del Santo Anello. This fascinating work contains the “Virgin’s Wedding Ring”, an impressive piece of agate that changes color according to the character of its wearer.
Beyond the old city walls, one finds San Pietro, the most exorbitantly decorated church within Perugia. San Domenico, another Perugian church, and Umbria’s largest, are located within Piazza Giordano Bruno.
Other notable sites of Perugia include the National Umbria Archeological Museum where Etruscan, prehistoric and Roman artifacts display a fascinating local historical timeline. The Palazzo dei Priori is one of the most stunning public buildings within Perugia and the city's surrounding region. Within the palace, the walls are elaborately decorated with frescoes. On the third floor, one discovers a treasure trove of works from 13th – 18th century local artists with highlight including altar pieces by both Pierro della Francesca and Fra Angelico.
Final attractions of Perugia include the Eurochocolate Festival, which is a true “must” to attend, and the Umbria Jazz Festival; both of which occur annually in Perugia.
