First Sunday Lecture
2018 Travelogue - Historical Tourists in Italy

Sunday, April 7, 2019
3:00-4:00 p.m.
Smyrna Public Library, Meeting Room

Presenter, Jane and Fred Krenson

Part travelogue and a lot history, the Krensons' visit to Italy focused on Umbria and the Medieval cities that grew and prospered in Italy. The Krensons made a long swing (4000 total miles) from Rome through Amalfi and Matera, settling in Perugia for a month, and then finishing north through Venice, the Dolomites, Lake Garda, Verona, Lucca and ending back in Rome. They immersed themselves in rural Italy, visiting the small beautiful villages of central Italy, investigating churches, castles and windy road, and experiencing the local cuisine and viticulture of each area. They will have diagrams, maps, drawings and lots of photos.

Refreshments will follow the presentation.

The First Sunday Lecture series is sponsored by the Friends of Smyrna Library and Smyrna Library.
