Where Contemporary Meets History
In Foligno, a visit to the CIAC is a must for anyone passionate about contemporary art. This centre, located in the heart of the city, occupies a site with an intriguing history—it was once a milk processing plant and later became a post office.
A cultural and creative hub, the building serves as a bridge between past and present. Its unique location – nestled between the medieval apse of the Church of San Francesco and the Art Nouveau architecture of Via del Campanile – makes it truly special. You’ll recognise it instantly: a corten steel-clad cuboid, its rust-toned façade giving it a bold, unmistakable character.
