This is one of the venues at the International Journalism Festival in Perugia, which I’ve been to a number of times . It’s the former San Francesco al Prato church or the Church of Saint Francis in the Meadow, and it was derelict and half destroyed for decades — due to landslides, earthquakes, floods and general neglect — before being renovated and turned into a conference venue. The original building dates back to the 1200s sometime, but in the 1800s they tried to renovate it and wound up almost destroying it. It was reconstructed in its current state in the 2000s.
