According to an ancient legend, it is said that Filottrano was founded by the Lombard prince Ottrano: the name of the town is the synthesis of Mons Philiorum Optrani, or the "mountain of the sons of Ottrano". The first certain sources on the existence of a small fortified village date back to 1187.

In the heart of the historic center, the town hall stands out with its civic tower. Walking through the streets of Filottrano, you can perceive the medieval atmosphere of the town. Famous for its sartorial tradition, it even houses the sewing machine museum.
