Places and products of excellence in Umbria, Italy
> The Town Hall, an almost exactly circular building called in old times People Palace, is located in the Town Square.
Built in 1270 in a much small size, was later enlarged on the whole left side during the 15th century, when a porch with octagonal pillars, finished off with capitals decorated with large Acanthus leaves, was added: a big terrace dominating the square rises above the Renaissance loggia.

> Nella Piazza del Comune, quasi esattamente circolare, sorge il Palazzo Comunale, anticamente chiamato Palazzo del Popolo.
Costruito nel 1270 con dimensioni assai ridotte, venne successivamente ampliato su tutto il lato sinistro nel corso del XV secolo, quando fu ampliato con un portico a pilastri ottagonali, rifiniti da capitelli con larghe foglie d’acanto: sopra al loggiato rinascimentale sorge una grande terrazza che domina la piazza.
