Manciano (PG)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Manciano, a village in the Italian province of Perugia in east central Umbria on the SE flank of Mt. Matigge, 42°54N 12°46E; altitude 509 m (1670 ft) above sea-level. It is a frazione of Trevi, which is 3 km (about 2 mi) SSW. Its population is probably less than 100. To the modern visitor the main interest of the village itself is the church of S. Martino and, not far away, the beautiful ruins of the Romanesque abbey church of S. Stefano in Manciano. The frazione extends several kilometers further to the NE into the Appennine range and the hamlet of Ponze at 904 m (2966 ft) altitude, with one more medieval church and a good view of central Umbria.
