As a Roman town (called Mevania), it was relatively prosperous during the Imperial Era. Roman ruins (a theater, baths with exquisite mosaics, the remains of a temple from the second century AD and a Roman Domus) and charming medieval architecture combine to make a pleasant visit to this village.
Among the most important monuments are the Palazzo dei Consoli, dating back to 1270, which now houses the Teatro Torti; Piazza Silvestri which is one of the most important medieval squares in the region and is dominated by both Saint Michele’s Church, built in the late twelfth century, and by Saint Silvestro’s Church which was completed in 1195. In the municipal museum there are many paintings from the Umbrian school as well as some important sculptures.
Each year in the last 10 days of June, Bevagna is transformed once again into its medieval glory. The Mercato delle Gaite(the ancient name for the city’s neighborhoods) consists of parades, races and traditional dishes prepared according to antique Umbrian recipes. Antique Bevagna comes back to life in the wearing of both festive and everyday costumes of the time.
