Nel 90 a.C. divenne Munucipio. Fu esposta alle invasioni barbariche a causa della sua posizione dominante, e divenne libero location nel sec. XI: tra i secoli XII e XIV toccò il suo massimo splendore. Durante il rinascimento fu frequentata da artisti di primissimo calibro quali il Rossellino, il Ghirlandaio, il Vecchietta, Antoniazzo Romano e lo Spagna. Nel 1527 fu presa con il tradimento dai Lanzichenecchi, che la incendiarono. Artisti quali gli Zuccari, il Vignola, il Sangallo e lo Scalza parteciparono alla ricostruzione, e nel 1664 fu fondata la biblioteca comunale. Tra i personaggi illustri nati a Narni ricordiamo l’imperatore romano Cocceio Nerva, il Gattamelata, la Beata Lucia, Berardo Eroli, Galeotto Marzio e Cassio da Narni.
Numerosi sono i monumenti di pregio presenti nella città. Tra i principali citiamo la Cattedrale romanica, nella quale si trovano opere del Rossellino e di altri famosi artisti, la chiesa di San Francesco, sorta nel XIII sec., con notevoli affreschi di scuola locale, Palazzo dei Priori, costruito nel 1275 probabilmente da Gattapone da Gubbio e posto nella omonima piazza medioevale. In questa piazza si trova anche il Palazzo Comunale, costruito nel 1273 con l’unione di tre torri, nel quale si possono ammirare: l’Incoronazione della Vergine, realizzata nel 1486 dal Ghirlandaio, il San Francesco Stigmatizzato dello Spagna, l’Annunciazione di Benozzo Gozzoli e una Mummia Egizia del IV secolo a.C.
