An 18th century mansion which has been in the family of its present owner since 1788, he (Francesco) is an architect who lived most of his life, first in Foligno (a nearby town) and later in Rome for twenty years. In 1996 he and his beautiful wife Tiziana decided to move to Bevagna a, small medieval village with only 4500 inhabitants, to refurbish the old family house and open it as a “Residence
d’epoca”. They did a marvelous job, everything has been keep as it originally was. The rooms were all fitted with private bathrooms and equipped with comfortable furniture, some of them antique pieces that were in the house. They also opened a restaurant on the ground floor which serves some delightful authentic medieval recipes.
In Bevagna, there is a very interesting event that takes place in June, where the Medieval times are lived once again. Everybody in town dresses in the costumes of the times. Francesco and Tiziana are not an exception, if you are not there for the “Mercato delle
Gaite” ask them to show you the pictures. |
