The town lies in a wonderful position at 493 m. above sea level dominating the Tiber Valley on a range of hills in the heart of Umbria, of which it is the administrative centre.
An ancient Umbrian and later Etruscan centre, Perugia became Roman after the battle of Sentinum in 295 BC., which marked the end of independence for the peoples of Central Italy.
At the fall of the Roman Empire, Perugia was invaded by the Goths; later (end 6th century) the Lombards and Byzantines fought for possession of the city, the latter finally winning the struggle.

Perugia was a very important Etruscan city with marvellous buildings
Perugia was a very important Etruscan city with marvellous buildings such as the Etruscan Arch or the Etruscan Well. The Roman emperor Ottaviano conquered the city and gave it a new name: Augusta Perusia. After the fall of the Roman Empire, the city became independent town with a own council, but often divided into fierce fights against families like the Baglioni.
This family was the only which contended the city with the Papal States in 1531. The pope Paolo III, as a symbol of his power, decided to build the “Rocca Paolina”, a huge rock above the old city. This power finished in 1860, year of the unification of Italy.
