Isola Maggiore is a place rich in history, pristine nature, and spirituality. Founded by fishermen who supplied fish to the city of Perugia, it later became an important pilgrimage destination after the passage of Saint Francis of Assisi.
Currently, the island carefully preserves many finely restored original buildings. Tourists love to visit the island to savor local excellences and shop at the small shops scattered around the area.
The island is also a significant spiritual location, perfect for prayer, meditation, and yoga. In fact, especially during the evening hours, one can experience absolute silence, interrupted only by the soothing sound of the waves.
