Montone - Umbria Museums 1.2

Ideal setting between monasteries and museums,
Where getting lost in indescribable landscapes
and in a surprising silence.
Montone, a precious gem nestled in the hillside of Umbria.

Montone, an authentic small village
This small mediaeval village, from the top of the hill on which it is defensively positioned overlooking the valley below, has remained unchanged for centuries.
Montone is one of the castles in the feudal age defensive system that were built on the hills between two tributaries of the Tiber river, the Carpina and the Lana rivers.

The Civic Museum of San Francesco
Artistic heritage and cultural convergence
The town of Montone boasts a rich artistic heritage characterized by the sober architecture of the palaces and churches or the works of art housed inside the Church and the Convent of San Francesco.
