Identità Terra offre esperienze di turismo sostenibile e culturale in Umbria, promuovendo il patrimonio locale.
Organiser
Travel agency IDENTITA' TERRA SRLS (AGENZIA ON LINE)

Tour Operator operante nei settori culturale, etico e didattico

"IDENTITÀ TERRA" was established as a project reality from the union of the experiences and skills of the founding members. These particularities are to be highlighted in the cultural, artistic, social, technical-agricultural, technical-tourist sectors and anything else related to their organisation.Particular reference will be made to the demand for

  • sustainable and experiential tourism
  • knowledge of food and non-food products in their characteristic supply chain
  • request for information on environmental sustainability
  • biodiversity
  • the "Slow" lifestyle
  • history and anthropology related to the above, especially physical, bodily, well-being, but also mentality, social organisation, etc.
  • inclusion and experimentation in situations of full immersion in the realities that are the subject of the tourism or experiential courses, including the treatment of historical, artistic, and cultural artefacts, with interpretations and performances that use several languages, to convey as much information as possible.

In this scenario we will set up, as far as possible, collaborative networks, as well as suppliers and/or collaborators and other collaborations useful for the realisation of the activity itself.Lastly, we highlight the possibility of joining groups and consortia, which offer, especially in the initial stages, anything that may be useful and effective for the realisation of the social purpose.It follows that our first intention will be to have a corporate structure operating in the tourism sector, as a starting point, and which will then be able to create networks in all related sectors.

Panicale, a historic and picturesque town perched on the top of a ridge at 441 m above sea level, owes its appearance to its medieval origins, of which it still preserves all the structural and architectural features. The layout of the village in concentric circles represents one of the most advanced systems of military defence at successive levels typical of the medieval period. In fact, this type of defensive structure allowed the castle of Panicale to resist the numerous sieges to which it was subjected. Panicale is part of the "Borghi piu' belli d'Italia" (Italy's most beautiful villages) and has been awarded the "Bandiera Arancione" (Orange Flag) for the preservation of its historical landscape. It is possible to visit the Collegiate Church of San Michele Arcangelo, named after the town's patron saint and probably of Lombard origins: inside, in the last chapel on the left, there is an Adoration of the Shepherds, an altarpiece dating back to 1519 and proof of the artistic maturity of the painter Giovanni Battista Caporali. At the Church of San Sebastiano, just outside the walls, there is a masterpiece by Perugino: the fresco Il Martirio di San Sebastiano (The Martyrdom of St Sebastian) from 1505: here again, it is the lake water that dominates the panorama.

Wandering further through the narrow streets of the village, we come across one of the smallest theatres in Italy, the Teatro Cesare Caporali, founded in 1692, still the seat of the village's cultural activity.
