About this Event
Step into the enchanting streets of Gubbio, one of Italy’s most charming medieval towns, without leaving your home. This virtual walking tour invites you on an unforgettable journey through a place where time seems to stand still. Known as the "City of Stone," Gubbio is a treasure trove of history, culture, and breathtaking views, nestled in the heart of Umbria.
As we explore, you'll feel as if you're wandering its ancient cobblestone streets. We'll visit the majestic Piazza Grande, a spectacular open space with panoramic views of the surrounding hills and valleys. Together, we’ll admire the towering Palazzo dei Consoli, an architectural gem that speaks of Gubbio’s rich history and importance during medieval times. We'll discover the magic of the Fontana dei Matti, the Fountain of the Mad, and learn about the quirky local tradition tied to it.
This tour isn’t just about sights—it's about stories. Discover the legend of St. Francis and the wolf, a tale of peace and harmony that has become a symbol of the town. Learn about the ancient Eugubine Tables, one of the most important archaeological finds in Italy, offering a glimpse into the region's early civilizations. And of course, no visit to Gubbio would be complete without uncovering the traditions of the Corsa dei Ceri, a vibrant festival rooted in centuries of devotion and community spirit.
Whether you’re a history lover, a fan of Italian culture, or simply dreaming of a picturesque escape, this virtual tour of Gubbio is your invitation to explore, learn, and be inspired. Let the beauty of Umbria captivate you and spark your wanderlust!
