Blood once stained these medieval stones as Perugia’s fortunes turned on whispers, rebellion, and clandestine acts beneath its grand façades. Beyond the familiar piazzas lies a city where beauty hides secrets and every silent corridor conceals another story.

This self-guided audio tour is your pass to Perugia’s innermost dramas. Move beyond the postcards to discover rebellions beneath the spires, art that nearly vanished forever, and libraries that locked away forbidden knowledge.

Was there really a treacherous plot hatched inside the Cathedral’s shadowy crypts? Why did one painting at the National Gallery spark outrage and censorship? Who risked everything to sneak scandalous volumes into the vaults of Augusta Library?

Trace bold escapes and silent conspiracies as you cross ancient arches and sunlit squares. Each step reveals the city’s pulse—rich with rivalry, artistry, and enduring intrigue.

Dare to uncover what lurks behind Perugia’s gilded doors. Begin your journey now.
