Passignano sul Trasimeno, Medieval town in Umbria, Italy
The fortified settlement stands on Lake Trasimeno at 289 meters elevation, with defensive walls enclosing the central district and a fortress at its summit.
During World War II, Passignano sul Trasimeno housed the SAI Ambrosini aircraft factory, which manufactured military planes near the current railway station location.
The town celebrates Saint Christopher each July 25 with traditional festivities, while local restaurants serve specialties including freshwater trout from Lake Trasimeno.
Regular boat services connect Passignano sul Trasimeno to Polvese and Maggiore islands, providing access to historical structures and natural areas.
The former SAI Ambrosini aircraft factory buildings remain near the railway station, with testing operations conducted at nearby Eleuteri airport during industrial operations.
