A village between rivers

Lisciano Niccone - Lisciano Niccone is a village of about 900 inhabitants, located in Monte Castiglione, on the right side of the Niccone Valley, in the province of Perugia. Since ancient times this place has been considered very important because it is located in a position that controls the road to the Tiber Valley, Trasimeno and Val di Chiana. In addition to being a meeting point between rivers, the inhabited center was the link of many civilizations: during the control of the Byzantines, Lisciano had a very important position together with other castles, as it was one of the defensive fortresses who controlled the communication route between Rome and Ravenna.

The remains of the town castle, dating back to the 11th century, are still visible in the town. In Val Rosa, five kilometers away, is the church of San Nicolò, a monument rich in art and history. There are numerous sacred buildings that underline the artistic prestige of this apparently modest village. In terms of landscape, in addition to the nearby presence of rivers, you can enjoy the view of Lake Trasimeno and go hiking in the woods at any time of the year. In short, Lisciano offers a complete experience to the tourist, who can feel at the center of an immortal nature and part of an interesting history.
