gubbio

Gubbio is dominated by the massive structure of the Palazzo dei Consoli, symbol of Gubbio's medieval power and one of the most beautiful public palaces in Italy. Gubbio's Corsa dei Ceri ñ the Race of the Candles ñ is without doubt one of the most famous festival in the world: it is the most sensational, exciting and crazy race you have ever watched! It is celebrated on the 15 May, St. Ubaldo's eve, and this has happened for centuries: the origins of the festival of the Candles date probably to the half of the 12th century, when the Commune, after an important victory in a war against some enemy cities, decided to celebrate the event and express gratitude to the then bishop of Gubbio Ubaldo by an annual festival.
