Next to the Priori are the beautiful medieval Collegio della Mercanzia and Collegio di Cambio.

Perugia was an important Etruscan town, a fact reflected by the wealth of Etruscan artefacts in the museum.

The Lower Church is almost entirely covered in frescoes by Simone Martini and Pietro Lorenzetti amongst others. However, the most spectacular frescoes are those in the Upper Church by Giotto detailing the life of the saint. Also worth a look are the medieval cloisters and the Treasury.
