THE HISTORY

In 1200 A.D., at the time of S. Francesco, the Tescio (a stream that touches Assisi) was running upwards compared to the present course; all the area behind Assisi was wild and without streets. The only street was a narrow path that was following, from Assisi, the course of the river up to the towns of Satriano and Nocera Umbra. Where the village is today, there was once an obligatory passage crossing the river; the site was therefore called Passidone and it is told that S. Francesco himself, in his pastoral pilgrimages, passed here.In 1226 A.D., S. Francesco, being very ill in Nocera Umbra, was brought back by a group of knights by walking in the way from Satriano and Assisi crossing the river right here where we are, in Passidone. In remembrance of that special event, every year, on the first Sunday of September, a free open ride, called Cavalcata di Satriano, is organized.It 1300 A.D., as a consequence of the rural development of the area, a watermill with a stone granary, that is still existing, was built.Later, through the following centuries, the stream slightly diverted its direction, diminished its flow and lowered its river bed.Consequently a canal made of stone and brick was built and, bringing a huge quantity of water from above, was taking it towards the mill, (where still nowadays the ruins can be seen), at the level of the present cellar, passing through a big medieval pool where until less than a century ago people could bath in summertime with great pleasure.The Tescio water, in fact, is fed at a distance of less than 1 km upwards by sulfuric springs that the local farmers used to drink in case of stomach diseases. Because of the cultural transformation imposed by the Pontifical State and, in consequence of the countryside exodus, the mill became economically inconvenient and was closed in the year 1800. A family of old farmers lived in it while being in service of Count Bartocci, a representative of the Pontifical Curia and lord of all the surrounding lands.For a century the mill has been a farm and a center of agricultural and zootechnical production; only recently Professor Roberto D?Arrigo, fondly impressed by the mysticism of such places, decided to convert stables, granarys, the poor homes and whatsoever, in a tourist facility that may convey to others those sensations of austerity, peace and universal friendship.

THE SWIMMING POOL

AN ENCHANTING TERRACE ON THE SUBASIO
The location of the swimming pool is apart and reserved. A sapphire mounted among emeralds, an architectonic jewel totally surrounded by green, a wonderful terrace with a breathtaking view on the Subasio. Built in 2003 with the most modern criteria such as: electronic disinfections system (without chloral gas emissions), sand multiple filtering, 4 places hydromassage with separate pumping controlled by 2 buttons displayed on the edge, totally built with local stones. The Romanic arch is made of the original ruins of a destroyed ancient structure. Besides the existing old olive trees, new ones have been added. Northwards, a room, our gym, has been dug into the rock.

MEDIEVAL DINNER.

It is the most emotional and suggestive moment that arises a powerful attraction and pleasure:The village changes, the golden and mild sunset light reflects on the houses? white and pink stones and the atmosphere becomes fantastic. After a while, the sinsiter and shaking torch rays make scarcely glimpse the horses and donkeys shadows, the silent coming and going of the maid servants, the servants and knights in their surreal costumes. A sound of pipes, drums and trumpets comes by, a group of musicians sing an ancient romance as if they were coming out of an old Pinturicchio painting. The fairy tale starts and you feel as if you were in an ancient 15th century inn; everything is medieval, the courses, the old recipes, the lost flavours and the songs. This is a dreamful, unique, exciting and unforgettable night. (Dates of the programme are available at the front desk)
