Spoleto, even if shows evident traces of the Roman era even in its urban structure, substantially mantains a medieval appearance, due to the period in which it was first a flourishing longobard Duchy, and then an important city within the Papal State.
The town of Campello sul Clitunno is to be found at about 10 km north of Spoleto. Its fame is due more to the bucolic atmosphere of its springs, descrived in the past by poets as important as Vergil and Carducci, than to its artistic works or to the fortified town of Campello Alto.
Taking the road from Spoleto to Montefalco, one finds the town of Castel Ritaldi, which, obviously, even if it is not to to be compared with other larger towns of the region as regards works of art, is not without buildings of a certain artistic interest.
Giano dell'Umbria was erected in the 11th century in the region called "Normandia" because of the Norman stationment when these attacked the Duchy of Spoleto.
