Art itineraries in Trevi

On foot

By bike

The town of Trevi and its territory is rich in various places, scattered throughout the area, still preserving numerous interesting testimonies of local art, and not only, the result of a very intense artistic activity taking place between the Middle Ages and the Renaissance, documenting the artistic vitality of a town that until the end of the seventeenth century enjoyed a good economy and continuous relations with the Roman artistic world.

In the early 14th century, painters from Giotto’s workshop in Assisi worked here, bringing the “new art” to our churches (St. Catherine’s, St. Peter’s at Pettine, St. Nicholas, St. Francis in Trevi). This was followed by the most important members of the nearby school of Foligno with the painters who were transitioning to the Renaissance, at their best in Trevi in the church of the Madonna delle Lagrime with the Nativity by Perugino and his followers Lo Spagna and Tiberio di Assisi in the church of San Martino. Seventeenth-century Roman painting can be admired in the vaults of the main floor of Villa Fabri, where one is projected into the artistic culture of northern Europe with the painters of the Beuron school who left a rare example of their art here. But contemporary art is at home in Trevi, first with the Flash Art Museum and now with Palazzo Lucarini Contemporary.
