The guided tour of Spoleto will make you discover a suggestive village in the heart of Italy, a jewel rich in art and monuments of different styles, from Roman and medieval buildings to the papal domination, whose name is also famous thanks to the historic Festival dei Due Mondi and the tv series Don Matteo.

It starts from the Arch of Drusus dedicated to the sons of the Roman emperor Tiberius which was built in 23 AD. in stone blocks as a triumphal entrance to the centre of the ancient Roman town; from here we see outside the Roman Theatre used for various shows, adjacent to the national archaeological museum.

Walking through the streets of a classic medieval village we can admire one of the most beautiful squares in the historic centre, the Market Square that for centuries hosted the city market and is now surrounded by bars, restaurants and food and wine shops where you can taste the products typical Umbrian; among the various historic buildings on the square, the monumental 18th century fountain stands out with the clock at the top and a monument dedicated to the Barberini family.
The tour continues arriving at the beautiful staircase from which you can enjoy a panoramic view of the Cathedral of Spoleto, the place a symbol of the town.

The Cathedral of Santa Maria Assunta appears in all its splendour with the characteristic facade covered by a mosaic, two orders of rose windows, the wonderful Renaissance portico and the bell tower on one side of the church; we visit the interior to admire the frescoes by Filippo Lippi and Pinturicchio in the chapels that adorn it. From here we use the escalators that comfortably take us to one of the highest points of Spoleto where we can admire the Fountain of the Mask, an iconic 17th century stone fountain adjacent to the wall of a church, a tribute to Pope Clement XII who restored the ancient aqueduct.

We continue by visiting the imposing Rocca Albornoziana externally built on Colle Sant 'Elia in the 14th century by the powerful Spanish cardinal Albornoz, a fortress in a strategic position that dominates the entire valley and which was also used to house papal governors and famous people.

The guided tour ends by admiring from the Rocca one of the most beautiful bridges in Spoleto, the majestic Bridge of the Towers which was originally the Roman aqueduct, entirely made of stone and 80 metres high.
