The old town centre
Spello is divided according to a town plan established in the Augustan period. A massive circle of walls surround the town crossed north to south by the “cardo maximus”, today the main road (via consolare, via Cavour, via Garibaldi, and via Giulia) and by the “decuman” cross road.
However, the basic layout remains Roman-medieval: narrow steep winding streets, pointed arches, covered passageways, hidden lay-bys, terracing, towers with flights of steps and stone façades. The town’s elevated position offers panoramic views with a calm atmosphere full of charm as you climb all the way up to the Rocca dei Capuccini from where you can enjoy some of the most beautiful natural scenery in Umbria.
