For those who like to take their time, a full day in Città di Castello.
Starting with the classic itinerary, which moves through the streets and squares of the center, it is possible to create numerous tailor-made itineraries, perhaps choosing from the city’s museums.
An itinerary to discover the city museums:
- Palazzo Vitelli alla Cannoniera, home of the town’s picture gallery, holds a canvas by Luca Signorelli and a banner painted by Raphael among its most important works.
- Palazzo Albizzini, city exhibition of the works of Burri, a contemporary artist who revolutionized the very concept of painting.
- Former Tobacco Dryers, born from the genius of Burri who wanted to make a work of art out of an old industrial plant.
- Bourbon del Monte Palace with the Museum of Umbrian Canvas, an ancient textile workshop and collection of handmade cloth, lace and lace.
- Former church of St. Paul at the Slaughterhouse, a true living museum of graphic art born from the old Grifone-Donati printing press, founded in 1799.
- Museo del Duomo, with a prestigious collection: from the 5th-6th century Treasure of Canoscio to the marvelous embossed and gilded antependium from the Romanesque period to one of Rosso Fiorentino’s most beautiful canvases.
