A private castle with antique heritage dating from the 12th century with commanding views of the Umbrian countryside

Castello di Procopio is a medieval castle which dates back to the 12^th century and originally built as a fortress by a Roman Emperor. Found as an ancient ruin left for centuries, the castle went through a grand restauration to become a current masterpiece full of heritage, history and unique charm.  Every stone, brick and wall holds a story behind it, bringing you back in time to the period of the fierce war between the Empire and the Papacy and later to the period of the early Renaissance artists.

This private castle is perched on a steep hill in the Umbrian countryside boasting awe-inspiring 360 degree panoramic views of the surrounding mountains and Tiber valley. The cities of Perugia and Assisi can be spotted from afar from the front terrace.
