The project was begun by the Global Nature Fund, headquartered on Lake Costanzo in Germany, with a mission to protect nature and the environment, Città della Pieve 8 as well as the wellbeing of wildlife. As a recognition of the efforts by members to respect the standards Magione 10 which guarantee environmentally friendly systems and management services it has been granted a quality excellence guarantee seal, which includes care of both visitors and residents alike, as part of a wider Paciano 12 project known as “Manifesto Ambientale”. www.globalnature.org Panicale 14 Passignano sul Trasimeno 16 Piegaro 18 Tuoro sul Trasimeno 20 This project is financed by the LIFE 2014 2020 project which was initiated in September 2019 and Land of Etruscan/Roman Civilisation 22 concludes on 30 September, 2023. The countries involved are Italy and Germany and 5 pilot areas: Lake The della Corgna family at Trasimeno 23 Costanza, Lake Chiem for Germany, and Lake Trasimeno, Garda lake and Lake Bracciano for Italy. The project partners are: Legambiente, ARPA Umbria, ENEA, Università Politecnica delle Marche, Autorità di Land of Great Men and Women 24 Bacino Distrettuale dell’Appennino centrale, Global Nature Fund (Germany), Lake Constance Foundation (Germany). Walking and Cycling Trails 26 The main objective of LIFE BLUE LAKES is to reduce the presence of microplastics in the Italian and Trasimeno Cycle Path 27 German lakes through an integrated approach that combines governance, educational, informational and awareness strategies. The Park and its Islands 28 One of the tools used in the project is the “La Carta del Lago”, or Lake Charter, a tool specific for each lake designed to support local administrations and reinforce the commitment of the economic and social Trasimeno Sapori 30 entities near the lakes to protect the lakes from microplastic pollution.

The Regional Environmental Protection Agency (ARPA Umbria) takes samples and analyses the parameters in the air, water and soil to ensure that they are in compliance with national and European standards. The data and research produced are an invaluable element in the drafting of local environmental policy. In 2017 the ARPA constituted the Centre for Climate Change and Biodiversity in Lake and Wet Zones on Polvese Island. In collaboration with some of the most qualified institutes in Italy and abroad, it’s task is to study the effects of global climate change on the flora and fauna of Lake Trasimeno. Furthermore, over the All rights to photography, maps and illustrations contained in this past few years, it has become a partner with the European Life Blue Lakes project whose aim is to study catalogue are reserved. the presence of microplastics in several European lakes, one of which is lake Trasimeno. Headquartered on Polvese Island, it also conducts a variety of awareness-raising scientific and sustainability activities through meetings, seminars and dedicated evenings.

Begun in April 2018, it will conclude in October 2021. Thirteen countries and 24 partners are involved, and Lake Trasimeno is one of the 14 pilot areas chosen for experimentation of the project results. Through the Living Lab of the “Trasimeno Living Lab”, the aim is to create a network between final users, institutions, businesses, researchers, associations and a third sector which strives to valorise the rural economy of Lake Trasimeno. The activities initiated through discussion and dialogue among the members are, up to now, the following: 1- The drafting of the Manifesto of Intent of the Trasimeno Rural Living lab; 2- The encouragement of good circular economic and innovative practices among the area operators; 3- The creation of a communicative intranet platform on which to facilitate the exchange of information and for the creation of future shared projects of the participants of the Trasimeno Rural Living Lab; 4- To favour sustainable initiatives that respect the environment and social inclusion among participants; 5- Increase the amount of slow and authentic experiential tourism packages to enhance the attractiveness of the area. www.liverur.eu Bandiera Arancione awarded by the Touring Club Italiano It’s the Touring Club Italiano’s seal of quality. Of the many charming historical towns around Lake Trasimeno, Città della Pieve and Panicale have been awarded this prestigious recognition. I Borghi più belli d’Italia www.lagotrasimeno.net This initiative came about to highlight the great historic, cultural and environmental heritage inherent in Italy’s smaller towns and villages.

Castiglione protects Lake Trasimeno, its image mirrored in the water.” The town’s most important landmark is, without a doubt, Palazzo della Corgna (1). Originally a grand villa, it later became the Corgna dynasty’s court palace. Today it is the venue of many important cultural activities and hosts a museum that celebrates the main events of the della Corgna family in frescoes painted by the renowned artist Niccolò Circignani, also known as Il Pomarancio. The Rocca del Leone (2), a military fortress built in the late XII century over the remains of an Etruscan site, is connected to Palazzo della Corgna. The Rocca is a pentagonal building that was modified by Frederick of Svevia to reflect the astronomical sign of Leo. The tower that dominates the entire perimeter of Lake Trasimeno and its enchanting landscape was added in 1310. The remains of a church of probable +39 075951099 Byzantine origin devoted to saints Filippo and Giacomo can still be seem inside the Rocca today. www.palazzodellacorgna.it The walls of the castle are home to a lovely amphitheatre where, in summer, exhibits and performances of all types can be enjoyed. 7 Historical routes Numerous other buildings are also worthy of note: the Chiesa di San Domenico (3) with its adjacent Museum of Sacred Art, and the Chiesa di Santa Maria Maddalena (4), where you can admire the lovely work of Eusebio da San Giorgio. Just outside of Castiglione del Lago you can go see the Chiesa di Santa Maria delle Grazie at Casamaggiore and the Santuario EVENTS della Madonna della Carraia at Panicarola. The former airport of Castiglione del Lago is especially beautiful and significant for the history it represents and the natural heritage that surrounds it. By Giorgio Brusconi 20% discount at the Art Shop of Palazzo della Corgna The nature that lines the lakeshore and the exceptional amphitheatre of the Rocca del Leone makes Castiglione del Lago an ideal place to hold events, especially in summer.

It is the fourth Italian largest lake and is one of the largest endorheic basins in western Europe. Because of its shallow depth and the absence of natural outflows, the lake, in historical times, alternated from periods of floods to strong decreases of the water level during periods of prolonged drought. Lake water is characterised by a NaCl composition and relatively high salinity. The geochemical and isotopic monitoring of lake water from 2006 to 2018 shows the presence of well-defined seasonal trends, strictly correlated to precipitation regime and evaporation. These trends are clearly highlighted by the isotopic composition of lake water (δ18O and δD) and by the variations of dissolved mobile species.

    TUSCANY ARCHAEOLOGICAL ITINERARIES A Journey from Prehistory to the Roman Age ONCE UPON A TIME... That’s how fables start, once upon a time there was – what? A region bathed by the sea, with long beaches the colour of gold, rocky cliffs plunging into crystalline waters and many islands dotting the horizon. There was once a region cov- ered by rolling hills, where the sun lavished all the colours of the earth, where olive trees and grapevines still grow, ancient as the history of man, and where fortified towns and cities seem open-air museums. There was once a region with ver- dant plains watered by rivers and streams, surrounded by high mountains, monasteries, and forests stretching as far as the eye could see. There was, in a word, Tuscany, a region that has always been synonymous with beauty and nature, art and history, especially Medieval and Renaissance history, a land whose fame has spread the world over. And yet, if we stop to look closely, this region offers us many more treasures and new histories, the emotion aroused only by beauty. Because along with the most famous places, monuments and museums, we can glimpse a Tuscany that is even more ancient and just as wonderful, bear- ing witness not only to Roman and Etruscan times but even to prehistoric ages. Although this evidence is not as well known as the treasures that has always been famous, it is just as exciting to discover. This travel diary, ad- dressed to all lovers of Tuscany eager to explore its more hidden aspects, aims to bring us back in time to discover these jewels.

  • Umbra Institute Summer Archaeologyprospectus3gen
    Umbra Institute Trasimeno Archaeology Field School, Summer 2015; in cooperation with DePauw University SUMMER 2015 DIG IN ITALY: ARCHAEOLOGICAL STUDY, RESEARCH, AND COMMUNITY OUTREACH GENERAL DESCRIPTION: This interdisciplinary program focuses on the topography, history, and material culture of the Lake Trasimeno region. Located in Umbria, the "Green Heart of Italy," Lake Trasimeno's cultural heritage and historical significance extends from the prehistoric period, to the famous battle between Carthage and Rome on its shores in 217 BC, to the modern day. The summer archaeology program, which saw its first iteration in 2014, is based in Castiglione del Lago, a modern town whose Medieval heritage is visible today and whose Roman and Etruscan past waits to be uncovered. Students enroll in two courses, ARFW 350: Archaeological Field Workshop and ARCL 340: Archaeological Heritage of Lake Trasimeno. • The Archaeological Field Workshop provides students with hands-on experience in archaeological field methods, artifact analysis, survey, and heritage protection and presentation. In 2015, two components to this course are planned. Students will gain experience in both components, which are supervised by Umbra Institute faculty, DePauw University faculty, and professional archaeologists, and are supported by officials and citizens of the Comune of Castiglione del Lago. o Excavation and survey in and around Castiglione del Lago and its castle that overlooks the shore of Lake Trasimeno, e.g., the small church inside the castle; a probable Roman villa on the south slopes of the ridge outside the castle fortifications; località Rigutini, a likely sanctuary site along the shore north of town; or località Poggio S. Maria, on slopes overlooking Lago di Chiusi, where bronze coins and stamps have been recovered.
