Gubbio was very important between 1000-1300 when it was independent. After that its decline started, and that's probably what kept the town small and contained.
I still remember walking inside Gubbio and how it felt so... medieval and different from other Italian towns. I grew up in a small Italian medieval town but Gubbio is quite unique.
