Between Foligno and Spoleto
Here we are in the land of extra virgin oil who, for some,
is the best one of the world. Therefore it is inevitable
to see the flourishing of a series of activities linked
to the picking of the olives, to their pressing and the
preservation of the precious liquid.
If you are interested in tasting an excellent extra virgin
olive oil DOP and to visit an oil press, the country farm
house CASALE
GRANDE is the ideal place where to stay. But this is
also a land of the great ‘norcini’ and maestri
expert in the work of pork meat. The art of the pork butchers
of Norcia is an antique art that is still surviving in the
Valnerina, such as in the entire region, using the same
techniques and the same secrets of a time. The art of the
transformation of the pork meats is also linked to very
antique works such as the ones of the surgeons of the school
o Sant’Eutizio, famous outside of the national frontiers
so that the kings of Europe and renowned men benefited form
their care, and the one of the blacksmith expert in the
production of surgery irons.
