The Palio di Valfabbrica, from 22 August to 1 September.
“Once upon a time… a center of medieval origin along the ancient road that connected Assisi to Gubbio, “In Vallis Fabricae” or better known as Valfabbrica. Here in the past there was the ancient Feast of the Holy Crucifix dedicated to medieval historical games. Since 1974 it has been known as the Autumn Festival or Palio di Valfabbrica – Giostra d’Italia where the historical re-enactment is carried out with meticulous care, articulated with facts, events and events that took place in the medieval period that gave birth to the territory of Valfabbrica”.

It is clear that the attraction of the moment in Umbria is the Tibetan bridge of Sellano, a brilliant idea made possible thanks to the foresight and determination of the municipal council; in this issue of Valley Life we will tell you about this jewel forged by the waters and set among rocks, woods and crystalline rivers: Sellano, with its stone villages (which comes from the local quarries) clinging to the mountains of the Umbrian Apennines.

We are at the Valico del Soglio, a crossroads at 828 meters above sea level: an old mountain road that coming from Foligno, passing through Rasiglia, leads to Sellano. It is one of those old connecting roads of our country, (it reminds me of the passage of the Furlo) that even before the advent of the highways, were frequently travelled. Along the way there was, punctually, a refreshment point for travellers…

A Perugian family tradition for 70 years now and that has been passed down for four generations. So it was that in 1954, Luigi Berardi and his wife Annunziata opened a laundry in Corso Cavour in Perugia. Luigi himself then advised his son Ernesto and his wife Paola to open a dyeing factory with a workshop in Via Appia. The year was 1965.

The exhibition at Palazzo della Penna chooses to offer visitors an unprecedented reading of Perugia’s story, focusing on the theme of the “artist’s workshop”, which began to take shape in the Middle Ages, in particular with the affirmation of Giotto’s art, and then consolidated, in its most typical characteristics, during the Renaissance period also thanks to Perugino, whose entrepreneurial skills are known no less than their artistic skills.
