From the monumental Etruscan Gate to the magnificent medieval Fountain, from St.Peter church to the art of Perugino and Raffaello, from the monumental Etruscan family tomb of the Volumni to the Papal Fortress Rocca Paolina, from the ancient Etruscan remains to the Middle-Ages, from Renaissance to Baroque, every period produced absolute masterpieces. Historically rich it is nevertheless a very lively town with lots of cultural events; the most famous one being the yearly Umbria jazz-festival in July.
