Cerreto di Spoleto is an Italian village and comune of the province of Perugia in Umbria.
Though now insignificant, Ponte was once an important defensive outpost overlooking the first bridge over the Nera River.
Today, the village is best known for the 12th-century Romanesque abbey church of Santa Maria: the façade includes a very good rose window, and the interior is notable for preserving the architect's sketch of that window, engraved on one of the walls of the nave.
Its principal sights are three churches, two of them medieval and the third of the 16th‑18th centuries, of which the best is San Nicola, with a frescoed interior.
The Renaissance humanist and poet Iovianus Pontanus (Giovanni Gioviano Pontano) was born here in 1426—although after his father had been murdered in a civic brawl his mother escaped with the boy to Perugia.
