A town of S central Umbria, a frazione of Acquasparta: 42°41.9N, 12°31.9E. Altitude: 380 m. Population in 2003: 89. |
Configni is a very small village, not much more than three bits of street and some medieval walls; the castle you see above, some 500 meters N, is not much smaller.
Here we've gone past the castle and are almost in the village. What was a defensive outpost is now a prosperous farm. |
The church of S. Maria Assunta. The interior, at least, is 20c. |
A bit more informal local information can be gleaned from the Oct. 16, 1994 entry of my diary, with a third photo of the castle, my best. Film was expensive back then, but now with digital cameras is essentially free: I hope to go back and photograph what I missed.
Images with borders lead to more information.
The thicker the border, the more information. (Details here.) |
