Gualdo Tadino
Among the towns of Umbria, Gualdo Tadino stands out for its setting beneath the Apennines and its longstanding maiolica tradition. Its compact historic centre is watched over by Rocca Flea, a medieval fortress that houses the town's civic museum. Gualdo Tadino developed along the route of the Roman Via Flaminia, the road linking Rome with the Adriatic side of Italy. The town's workshops remain associated with decorated pottery, while the wooded slopes and high ground around Monte Serrasanta place it firmly within the mountain borderland between Umbria and the Marche. This is a settled Italian hill town with an identity shaped by road, craft and fortress.
