Neighborhood highlights

The charming village of Spello is nestled on the lower slopes of Mount Subasio in the heart of Umbria - the green heart of Italy. This picture perfect old Roman village is known for its meandering cobble stone paths with colourful flowers decorating its homes for all to see.
The meandering laneways of this remarkably well preserved Roman and Medieval stone village are decorated with brightly coloured flowers from May to September, but even during Winter there are always sights and smells to delight.
Spello is enclosed in a circuit of medieval walls on Roman foundations, including three Roman Late Antique gates (Porta Consolare, Porta di Venere and the "Arch of Augustus") and traces of three more, it boasts the remains of an amphitheater, as well several medieval gates and the recently uncovered Roman Villa of Sant'Anna, with its impressive mosaic floors.
The beauty of the flowers and ambiance of Spello can be appreciated all year around. In June, however the village is alight as the residents of Spello celebrate Corpus Christi with the laying of intricate flowered carpets in the streets; The Infiorata. The petals for the carpets are collected and dried by hand in the months leading up to the Infiorata, then laid with painstaking care the night before, resulting in an amazing display of carpets and floral paintings that wind through the streets of the historic centre, intended to honor the passage of the Body of Christ, carried in procession by the bishop on Sunday morning.
If you’re not fortunate enough to be in Spello for the Infiorata there are also weekly markets held in the village’s piazza, a photography exhibition in September, Olive Oil festivals held twice a year, between December and January and May to June, and a month long event, Incontri per le Strade (Meeting in the Streets), where the arts of Spello are showcased in August. There is also as a festival, Hispellum, celebrating the Roman heritage of the town held in August.
The centre of Spello is home to many wonderful restaurants and bars, two small food stores, a bakery, a wine store, a pharmacy, a post office and piazzas to sit and wile away the hours.
The many medieval churches of Spello are an architectural delight. The oldest, S. Maria Maggiore, is full of precious paintings by Perugino and Pinturicchio.
Walking trails lead those keen to explore through the olive groves to either Assisi or Collepino (a lovely little village further up the mountain).
Spello makes an ideal base for exploring the region. The fabulous wineries of Monefalco are only a 20min drive away; Assisi, the birthplace of Sant Francis is a 10min drive, or short train ride; Marmore Falls, a man-made waterfall created by the ancient Romans (the tallest man-made waterfall in the world) can be reached by car in 50 min; Perugia, the capital of Umbria is accessible by car or train; Lake Trasimeno, the largest lake in Central Italy and fourth among the Italian lakes after Lake Como is only 45 min away. There are many other historic towns to discover nearby and Siena, Florence and Rome are all within 2 hours of Spello.
