Bike and Secrets

Maggiore Island is the second largest on Lake Trasimeno, the only inhabited one, and is covered in dense vegetation of olive trees, holm oaks and cypresses. An ancient fishing village, the island is also known for its lace-making or Irish lace, introduced in the early 1900s by the Marchesa Guglielmi to whom the ancient castle located there is dedicated. Worth visiting are the Lace Museum, the House of the People's Captain, and the church of St. Michael the Archangel.

Bike and Sports

Fuori dalle mura cittadine si trovano la chiesa di Sant'Agostino, di San Francesco, oggi Santuario della Madonna di Fatima, la chiesa di Santa Maria dei Servi, con l'affresco del Perugino raffigurante la “Deposizione dalla Croce”, e la chiesa di Santa Lucia.
