Bevagna

The town features ancient walls with towers and bastions, containing traditional artisanal shops, monuments, and the central Piazza Silvestri with religious structures.

The settlement transformed from the Etruscan-Oscan civilization into the Roman municipium of Mevania around 80-90 BC along the western branch of Via Flaminia.

The Mercato delle Gaite summer festival includes medieval banquets, processions, and competitions between local quarters, celebrating traditional crafts and customs.

The town stands at 210 meters elevation, 35 kilometers from Perugia, with connections to Foligno and Todi through the modern Via Flaminia highway.

Lake Aiso, a karst formation between Topino and Timia rivers, holds archaeological discoveries including a 5th-century BC Umbrian warrior bronze statue.
