Poppi

Dominated by a castle in golden-coloured stone which hosts precious frescoes by Taddeo Gaddi and the Biblioteca Rilliana with over 70.000 books.

Visit the Abbey of S.Fedele and the 17th century Oratorio della Madonna del Morbo with a Madonna attributed to Filippo Lippi.

On the nearby plain of Campaldino, in 1289, the Guelphs and Ghibellines of Florence and Arezzo fought one of the bloodiest battle of the Middle Ages.
