Ciao tutti. We have a home in Umbria, and I would like to know if you need solar energy to operate your pool? We do not have a heated pool and are not interested in installing solar panels due to the cost. Currently we have 4 solar panels and 6 batteries that have been there sin
Montone (Umbria)
Montone is a walled medieval village in the Province of Perugia in the Italian region Umbria, located about 35 km north of Perugia.
The town is the origin of the Fortebracci condottieri family, whose most famous member was Braccio da Montone.
The most important religious building the Gothic Church of San Francesco which hosts the Umbrian frescoes, some attributed to the master Bartolomeo Caporali, and interesting wooden sculptures. The church is also the home of the Municipal Museum, which holds paintings, silver, and sacred vestments of great artistic value and, on the ground floor, the Ethnographic Museum, with over 600 items from Eastern Africa. Just outside the center one finds the Rocca d'Aries, an imposing castle which has been returned to its ancient splendor by painstaking restoration work.

I am trying to find my Italian roots. I have documents for my grandfather but I want to find his parents and grandparents.
I have names in my grandmother's line but I need help to validate my findings. What sources can I use while I am in Italy.

Hi, does anyone have any recommendations for where to find an Italian/English speaking caretaker for a property we're buying in Umbria?
