MUST-SEE
PANICALE
4. Tulle Museum
The Museum, located inside the ancient Church of Sant’Agostino, is dedicated to Anita Belleschi Grifoni, who was responsible for the renaissance of the embroidered tulle art in Panicale. It is thanks to her that the Ars Panicalensis was born, and subsequently every work kept inside the Museum.
6. Museum of Sacred Ornaments in the Church of Madonna della Sbarra
With its baroque style, the church was built where the ancient customs and a shrine with a fresco representing the Virgin Mary, believed to be miracolous, were located, at the request of the Panicale citizens. The museum displays many holy vestments, ornaments, decors and furnishings, coming from the churches of Panicale.
7. Panoramic views overlooking Lake Trasimeno
Because of its position, Panicale is considered the best panoramic terrace over Lake Trasimeno, and there are many viewpoints scattered in the historical center. Most important ones: the “Via del Belvedere”, the “Piazza Regina Margherita” and the “Piazza Masolino”.
8. A walk around town and the Land Art Museum Circuit
With its three concentric town walls, Panicale offers visitors the possibility to walk in a well-preserved and almost untouched tile medieval village, as opposed to the Land Art Museum Circuit, with three famous works made by important contemporary artists, located in different areas: “Arco rovesciato” by Mauro Staccioli in Via del Belvedere, the Panicale Amphitheater made by the american artist Beverly Pepper and “Cristalli in Formazione” by Virginio Ferrari inside the Church of Madonna della Sbarra.
10. The Shrine of Mongiovino
Typical Marian shrine built at the beginning of the 15th century below the Castle of Mongiovino, not too far from Tavernelle. Inside are many frescoes painted by various artists from Tuscany, Marche and also the Netherlands, which represent the most important collection of the second half of 1500 in Umbria.
