Umbria
Urbino was once Italy’s greatest seat of learning and is now better known as a pleasant Renaissance hilltown in the center of the Umbria region – a favorite destination recently discovered by Italy afficionados. Nestled among its skyline of soaring domes and towers is the Ducal Palace and its splendid gallery of art that is not to be missed. Housed here are many of the finest works of the artists Piero della Francesca, Titian, and hometown favorite Raphael, whose childhood home is also open for viewing.
