ペトリートリの洞窟・トップ8

Ponzano di Fermo is a little gem that emerges among the rolling hills and the Apennine nature. Between castle and churches it is definitely worth a visit.

Beautiful village to visit with a very important history and interesting cellars nearby. Beautiful view from the tower. IG: https://www.instagram.com/gravel_marche/

It is a hilly municipality of very ancient origins, located in the sub-Apennines of the Marche region, in the lower valley of the Tenna river. The toponym derives from the god Janus, to whom a temple was dedicated on the top of the town's hill, where Roman and pre-Roman finds were found. During the Middle Ages it was a castle that depended on Fermo. The historic centre, with its elliptical shape, has the characteristics of a medieval castle, of which the remains of the fortified walls, three towers and Porta Marina are still visible, once the only access to the castle, dating back to the fourteenth century but which was rebuilt in the form current in 1707

Also known as the "City of the Mediterranean diet", located on a hill at 411 m. above sea level, in an area of ancient Piceno and Roman settlement, as demonstrated by numerous and significant archaeological finds. The urban structure of Montegiorgio dates back to the Middle Ages, when the Benedictine monks settled there in the 9th century, welcoming the first inhabitants of Montegiorgio around the Church of Santa Maria Grande (the current San Francesco with Farfense Chapel) and the Convent. The center of Montegiorgio is positioned on a hilly relief. The city walls encompass the entire historic center which maintains some of the characteristic medieval streets; you can admire the remains of castle walls, with an access portal still equipped with a wooden door, and some narrow alleys on a human scale. There is currently a lot of post-earthquake consolidation work underway.

Very well preserved medieval castle, characterized by two large towers, the Heptagonal Tower and the Clock Tower. Definitely worth visiting

The castle of Moresco, within the Association of the most beautiful villages in Italy, stands on the top of a hill overlooking the Aso valley below; in the Middle Ages it was a stronghold of the Municipality of Fermo in the war against Ascoli. Its strategic position is still evident: from the village you can in fact enjoy a spectacular view that ranges from Monte Conero to the Gran Sasso. The village, completely surrounded by walls, has a triangular shape with the imposing 12th-century heptagonal tower at the top. which is home, especially in the summer, to art and photographic exhibitions.

The fortified village develops on a narrow rocky ridge dominated by its high watchtower.

Beautiful climb that bypasses the state road and connects Fermo to Monte Giberto.
