| The
12th century 'borgo' (hamlet) of Santa Giuliana is
one of the best-preserved castles in the Umbrian province
of Perugia.The earliest mention of Santa Giuliana
is found in the monastic annals of the Carmodolite
Order in the year 1143 when the castle was a military
outpost for Perugia. By the late 16th cent., the castle
no longer had a military function and it became a
monastic settlement. More recently, and until the
end of the last century, it was occupied by farmers
employed by one of the large landholders of this region.
In the early 1970's, a diverse group of artists, after
lengthy negotiations with the Church, purchased the
hamlet. Over the course of the next 10 years, the
stone buildings were painstakingly restored. Although
modern amenities (electricity, plumbing, central heating)
were added, this was done with the utmost care to
respect the original design.
Casa Giuliana is perched near the peak of Monte Corona
and there are breathtakingly beautiful views of the
surrounding countryside.
This charming vacation home has three bedroom. The
ground floor has a single bedroom.There is a small
living area on the ground floor ideal for reading.
The

pottery and utinsils.

second floor has two bedrooms. There is one double
