What to do and see in Spoleto, Umbria: The Best Historic Sites

October 12, 2021 Velvet Mowry

A wonderful mix of remnants from its Roman and medieval pasts, Spoleto’s history actually goes back further to Bronze Age Umbria. Today, it’s best known for its annual summer Festival dei Due Mondi (Festival of Two Worlds or Spoleto Festival), honoring music, opera, theater and dance. Among the city’s many excellent historic sights are its first-century Roman amphitheatre, the 12th-century Duomo, 13th-century Ponte delle Torri aqueduct and the 14th-century hilltop fortress, Rocca Albornoziana.

Piazza del Duomo is fabulous to enter via the wide, stepped road leading to the piazza, with the Duomo framing the piazza beautifully.
