The Conero Riviera: Central Italy... The Heart of Italy A territory found in the centre from all perspectives. Firstly it is in the centre of the Italy, but also in the centre of the Adriatic coast and the Marche region. This centrality is identified with the heart: a place of emotions, desires and passions.

Stunning scenery, beautiful blue sea, one of the best beaches I have ever been to, even though it was extremely crowded in August. Swimming in the sea during the hottest heatwave I have ever witnessed was an absolute delight!

Starting from the center of Ancona, after a long uphill walk, you can admire this magnificent Romanesque cathedral. The cathedral is located right at the top of a hill overlooking Ancona from which you can see a wonderful view of the sea. Where Greek temples once dominated, Christianity has replaced them with this beautiful cathedral. Definitely worth the visit, try it at sunrise or sunset for sure and very suggestive

we had no idea this castle existed but was recommended by a local. very glad he did. we have visited a number of castles all over europe. this is very well preserved. the minute you walk under the drawbridge you are back in time. you can look down into the drawbridge from above and see the mechanisms. there is a torture chamber, bedrooms, halls etc. to explore. there are signs explaining the rooms in english. there is paid parking and also free parking near-by. with the free parking there is a steepish walk up to the castle.we visited on a beautiful weekend and it was busy with locals but when you get into the castle itself there was hardly anyone walking around so you could take your time. we spent an extra 1 euro each to walk around the battlement. not a long walk but great views. the entrance fee into the castle is cash only so be prepared for that.

We were lucky to have stopped here for a fe hours when traveling along the Adriatic coast. The village is nicely preserved, with wonderful views and a great historic atmosphere. Plan at least an hour to explore the alleys and viewpoints (including the castle‘s ruins).

Beautiful historical sight, worth visiting at least outside. The current appearance of the Fortress dates back to the Renaissance period: it was built between 1476 and 1482 by Giovanni Della Rovere, nominated Lord of Senigallia and Vicar of Mondavio by Pope Sisto IV, who was at the time his uncle Francesco Della Rovere. Now it’s a museum that hosts different kinds of exhibitions. Very picturesque!
