As of Spring 2004, the
„Centro Studi Italiani“ is pleased to announce new courses as well as
interesting accommodation options for
Opera Festival
participants as well as students in the
Preparatory Courses for Italian Universities and for
organized groups.
These facilities in various towns are located about 15 minutes away from
Urbania by car (a coach service between Urbania and these towns can also be
provided). These towns are of interest both historically and artistically
and are nestled in the magnificent hilly countryside of the region. You will
be sure to receive a warm welcome from the locals known for their
hospitality. The historic centres of these towns have been well preserved
and maintained, unchanged throughout the centuries. Groups staying in these
outlying towns can take part in the language courses in Urbania, and in the
afternoon can partake in musical, artistic or touristic activities in the
outlying town.
In the evening one is able to participate in the various events in Urbania
and its surrounding areas as well as in the various excursions to other
major centres in the region. The school secretariat remains at your disposal
regarding any questions about the region and what it has to offer.
