Taverna dell'Armigero in Camerino is the tavern of the Terziero di Muralto, one of the town's historic districts, linked to the Corsa alla Spada e Palio reenactment. It occupies the cellars of a palace in the historic center, with long wooden tables under barrel vaults. On the day it reopened, May 3, 2024, visitors were greeted by a man-at-arms in armor. The tavern follows the reenactment calendar: in 2024 the dinners were held from May 15 to 26.

Taverna dell'Armigero: where it is
The tavern is in the cellars of the building on Piazza Umberto I, the former Istituto Magistrale, in the center of Camerino, next to the church of Santa Maria in Via. Since 2024 the same building has housed the Rectorate of the Università di Camerino.
The building stands where the monastery of San Salvatore once was. The cellars may be older. After the earthquake the tavern had been moved elsewhere. In 2024 the Terziero di Muralto brought it back to its original home, with intense work to restore the rooms. In the 2026 edition of the Corsa alla Spada the terziero's dinners were held in piazza Umberto I.
Taverna dell'Armigero: what it offers
The rooms are those of a Renaissance tavern. During the Corsa alla Spada they host dinners open to all, with costumed entertainment and, in 2026, afternoon “chiacchierate in taverna” (tavern talks). Outside that period the place has had other uses: in the past it hosted Santa's House, in May 2025 a talk on the walls, towers and streets of Camerino, and in October 2026 a stop of the Caccia ai tesori arancioni treasure hunt.
