Keepers of Tradition

Umbria is the region of norcineria, the black truffle of Norcia, the Sagrantino di Montefalco and the extra virgin olive oil of Spoleto. Umbrian food festivals are intimate events where communities gather in medieval squares to celebrate the fruits of the land. From Perugia to Orvieto, from Assisi to Bevagna with its Gaite, each festival is a journey through living Medieval times.
