La Ville des Cierges

Perched at the top of a rocky hill in the midst of the Tiber and Nera river valleys, Amelia is one of the most interesting historic towns in Umbria. Periods and styles come together inside the mighty polygonal city walls encircling the town, creating an original, aesthetically pleasing atmosphere, illustrating the seasons of art and architecture from Roman times up through the 18th century. The churches and buildings provide evidence of the importance Amelia had in the period between the 16th and 18th centuries, especially as a center of Mannerist and Baroque art. The entire surrounding area is a harmonious succession of landscapes that seem like a series of natural frescoes. The hills sloping down to the Tiber valley are covered with maquis and centuries-old ilexes.
