The marquises of Monte Santa Maria, who added the name Bourbon to their title of nobility in the 16th century, are one of the oldest families in Central Italy. They are the descendants of those "marquises" who, starting from the 10th century. ruled most of the Upper Tiber valley through fortresses and castles built at various strategic points in the territory.

There are many archival materials about the history of the Monte Santa Maria Bourbon family and the events of the Marquisate, which greatly expands knowledge and research on the history of the Upper Tiber and Perugia valleys, webcams allow you to enjoy the beauty of this area online.

Often referred to as the castle or Palazzo Marchionale, the palace was built on the foundations of a pre-existing castle between 1564 and 1614. In 1894, a descendant of the owners sold the palace and all the property in Monte Santa Maria to the family of the Marquis Capranica del Grillo. From that moment on, the building began to fall into disrepair, and in 1944 it was badly damaged during the bombing.
In 1990, the municipality bought the building in order to save it and make it a symbol of the thousand-year history of the place. Now there is a museum here. On the first floor of the building there is an exhibition “The history of the territory from its origins to the Marquisate of the Bourbons Monte-S. Maria". It was conceived to revive an important chapter in the history of the territory, as well as to raise awareness of the art, architecture, traditions of the marquess and the family of the marquis.
The floor is divided into 3 rooms. The first room contains the archaeological section with finds found in the area. Artifacts cover the time period between the Neolithic and the 8th century. The second room is dedicated to the history of the family of the Marquis of Bourbon del Monte. In the hall there are several copies of ancient maps of the Marquisate and a panel dedicated to the imperial estates of Central Italy. In the third you can see, which illustrates the most important stages in the history of Monte Santa Maria Tiberina and the Palazzo Bourbon del Monte.

Perugia, whose webcams allow you to walk around the city in real time, is a great place for a memorable trip.
