Flyup: archaeological areas

The Valentine's Lands seen from drones

The Flyup project allows a bird’s-eye view of the Roman archaeological sites in the area identified as the Terre di San Valentino, in southern Umbria.

Flyup presupposes and requires the involvement of tourists who, to enjoy this view, must physically go to those places. It is a stimulus to the real visit of the archaeological heritage and / or the museum structure and an additional cognitive tool to frame it in the territorial context.

Ocriculum

Coming from Rome, Ocriculum was the first Umbrian town one came across when going along Via Flaminia. Due to its strategic position, along the consular road and close to one of the main Tiber ports, Ocriculum must have represented an important commercial hub in olden times. 

Augustan Bridge

The Augustan Bridge with its four large arches, made it possible for Via Flaminia to cross the deep gorge of the Nera River to present day Narni Scalo.
