Norcia

Norcia is a small mountain town in Umbria, in the province of Perugia, in the heart of the Monti Sibillini National Park. Of Sabine and Roman origin, it is the birthplace of Saint Benedict and Saint Scholastica: the main square is overlooked by the Basilica of San Benedetto and the Castellina, the sixteenth-century fortress designed by Vignola. Its name is also tied to the tradition of the norcineria, the cured meats and black truffle that have made it famous around the world. From Norcia you can climb up to the Piani di Castelluccio, renowned for the blossoming of the lentil fields in early summer, and set out on excursions toward Monte Vettore and the other peaks of the Sibillini. The Valnerina offers trails, cycling routes and activities along its rivers. A perfect place for a mountain home immersed in nature, or for a second home to rent out to hikers. Le Case di Reno accompanies you from your first viewing through to the deed of sale.
