Bastardo, Giano dell'Umbria

Bastardo is an Italian village and frazione (hamlet) of the municipality of Giano dell'Umbria, in the Province of Perugia, Umbria.

[1] Located in central Umbria in the valley of River Puglia, a tributary of the Tiber, at the altitude of 290 m (951 ft) above sea-level, Bastardo is 7 km far (about 4 mi) from Giano, 6 from Gualdo Cattaneo and 20 from Foligno.

It is an agricultural products processing center that counts several hotels and restaurants, due to its location in a scenic area of Umbria.

[2] In the 1920s the toponym was shortened to its current form and, from 1933, a name change was suggested but it was never modified.
