The name of Marsciano first appears in the literature in 1004, but the real origins of the village, are still unknown. The Bulgarelli, a Lombard family, owned the village as a feud, on the XII century, and yielded it towards Perugia on 1281 to prevent Todi from conquering the village. As it happened for other villages, after the Perugia dominion, Marsciano was owned by the papal State and shared its fate with it. The stunning view of the hills around the village, reminds the paintings of the Umbrian artists of the '400's.
