{“translation”:[{“lang”:”it”,”content”:”

Torgiano conserva un tipico aspetto medievale e resti di mura antiche. Questo antico borgo nel cuore dell’Umbria vede la sua storia legata all’antica Roma e una leggenda lo vuole unito al nome del dio Giano, al quale era dedicato l’antico torrione denominato appunto “Torre di Giano”.  

Noto per le sue eccellenti produzioni tipiche, soprattutto vino e olio, il paese ha saputo fondere la memoria storica del suo passato con una moderna vocazione all’ospitalità che garantisce a turisti e residenti una confortevole permanenza in una verde oasi di pace e tranquillità.

Torgiano, Umbria

Il borgo fortificato di Torgiano nasce tra la media valle del Tevere e la Valle Umbra, in un territorio caratterizzato dall’antica coltura della vite, documentata da reperti archeologici e da un tratto del 1300. La zona è agricola con colture varie, frequenti insediamenti artigianali, soprattutto ceramica d’arte.

Di notevole interesse per chi visita il borgo è certamente la tappa al Museo del vino, una raccolta assai pregevole di documentazioni storiografiche riguardanti vari settori: la tecnica della viticultura e della vinificazione, una documentazione artistica, folkloristica e bibliografica sullo stesso argomento. Accoglie inoltre una pregevolissima collezione di maioliche del ‘600 e ‘700.  Si tratta del Museo del vino più qualificato d’Italia, con raccolte di strumenti tecnici, stampe di varie epoche, artigianato specializzato, documenti del folclore.

Completa la scoperta di Torgiano anche la visita al Museo dedicato all’altro prodotto d’eccellenza del territorio. Il Museo dell’Olivo e dell’Olio nasce infatti attorno da un antico frantoio e presenta tutti i segreti della produzione, dalla coltivazione delle olive all’olio, a partire dagli usi e dalle caratteristiche delle epoche passate.

Dove si trova Torgiano?

Torgiano è situato in una posizione strategica per visitare alcune tra le città umbre più belle. Si trova infatti poco a sud di Perugia, a soli 15 km dal centro città del capoluogo umbro. Da Torgiano, sono dunque facilmente raggiungibili Assisi (20 km) e Foligno (35 km), ma anche Spoleto (60 km verso sud) e Gubbio (55 km verso nord). Inoltre, Torgiano dista solamente 35 km dalla sponda orientale del Lago Trasimeno.
