Marsciano is a city of in Umbria between Perugia and Todi. As a brickmaking town it has an interesting little museum on the topic. The area covered by the municipality (north of the town) is a very hilly and green area, with many medieval borghi and at least a couple of notable winemakers. Marsciano is a good starting point also for exploring the Monte Peglia, a massif in the adjacent Provincia di Terni, with plenty of holiday houses and B&Bs.

Museo dinamico del Laterizio e delle Terrecotte
This elegant Modernist building, painted salmon pink, provides counterpoint to the buildings of the historical centre. There is a war memorial outside with a pair of statues. It's not possible to go inside, but this is no loss because the exterior is the part that's worth seeing.
Theatre built in 1873 and restored, its beautiful terracotta facade is still original. It has 323 places, Dolby 3D Digital Cinema, film and digital projectors.
Some locals say this is the best restaurant in Marsciano. Good food and service. The restaurant seems to be the Oasi's main business rather than lodgings (see below). Has a large car park. Closed Mondays.
Very stylish "dinner cafe" in the historical centre of town. Has reasonably priced pizzas as well as posh gourmet dishes. Good service and English spoken.
Allegedly the only pub in town, the main room is decorated in the style of a galleon. There are other rooms and a large "Summer garden" during the hot season. Friendly staff, good choice of beers and also good for a meal.
Clean, simple, compact rooms. Free WiFi. It's a few minutes' walk from the town centre with views over the Umbrian countryside.
The local railway is suspended (as of May 2020). Local replacement buses operated by Busitalia from Perugia Ponte San Giovanni station (not Perugia's main station but on its same line) take about 35 minutes.
