Nocera Umbra

Overview

With its perched appearance, the town shows clear signs of its past as a defensive structure. Past Porta Vecchia is the 14th-century Church of San Francesco, home to the Pinacoteca and the Museo Civico. Among the buildings of greatest artistic value is the Duomo, an ancient Romanesque building dating back to the 12th century. In the surrounding area, important cultural and artistic centres are the Rocca di Postignano, Colle di Nocera, Col Pertana, Salmaregia, and the sacred shrines and country churches of Acciano, Aggi, Bagnara, Casaluna and Colle. The spirituality of the places is witnessed by the Franciscan Way: every year in September, during the Satriano Ride, knights in period costume retrace the last journey of St Francis in 1226 from Nocera Umbra to Assisi. Nocera Umbra has an ancient tradition as a spa resort: the waters of the Angelica spring gush out at Bagni di Nocera.
