The Abbey of Settefrati is a former Benedictine abbey of the twelfth century, transformed into a hunting lodge in the 16th century by one of the most prestigious noble families of the Lake Trasimeno area, the Della Corgna, in particular by Cardinal Fulvio Della Corgna who had it frescoed with grotesque motifs, with allegorical scenes, sacred images, animals, angels and fantastic figures who still have stories to tell.

Despite the traces left by time, the Abbey still preserves all the charm of its thousand years of history.

The experience includes:

  • Visit to the Abbey: church, cloister, frescoed rooms, officinal garden and olive oil mill.
  • Aperitif / final tasting with wine glass, bruschetta with olive oil, cheese with honey, crouton, bread and jam.
