Village of Santa Giuliana

p16qj976rr3m1dut1u7kfhf11813

The first news about the ancient village of Santa Giuliana back to the year 1362, in 1411, Captain Paul Orsini, an ally of Arm Fortebraccio, attacked the castle north of Perugia and Santa Giuliana was besieged . The reaction of the inhabitants, however, was resolute and effective so that the attackers had to leave the company, during which the captain himself was severely wounded Orsini. After long years of neglect, the whole complex has been completely restored respecting the original structure and is a beautiful example of a small medieval town. Inside the castle is a little church, built in 1558, dedicated to St. Anthony. At about 1 km you will find a tower, an ancient outpost of defense, and the church dedicated to St. Julian.
