アッピニャーノデルトロント周辺のおすすめ交通量の少ないサイクリングルート

アスコリのポポロ広場は、しばしば「イタリアのリビングルーム」と呼ばれています。トラバーチン舗装がユニークなエレガンスを与えているルネサンス様式の傑作です。その長方形の形は、59のアーチとギザギザの建物のある回廊に囲まれています。街の歴史的な中心部であり、カピターニ宮殿、サンフランチェスコ教会、歴史的なカフェ・メレッティがあります。イタリアで最も美しい広場の一つと考えられています。

The medieval village is perched on a travertine cliff overlooking the Castellano River valley below. From the belvedere garden and the village streets, you can enjoy a breathtaking view of the surrounding countryside, including the dam and the Talvacchia Lake basin.

The Lombards settled on this easily defended rocky ridge high above the Castellano river. The necropolis left by the Germans is truly special and is one of the greatest finds of the early Middle Ages. Later, the monastery played an important role and gave the economy a new boost, until it came under the administration of the city of Ascoli between the 12th and 14th centuries. The high rocky ridge gives the place a special character. The village is accessed through the only remaining gate and is characterized by a series of narrow streets that connect the various squares until they meet at the church of San Lorenzo with its bell tower. Every space has been skilfully used by the various houses that have arisen over the centuries. They are anchored in the rocks and lean against each other. This has created several breathtaking views in the few gaps between the houses, from where you can enjoy a beautiful view of the surrounding panorama.

Piazza del Popolo is the living room of the city of Ascoli. The square with its white travertine is surrounded by palaces, historic buildings, loggias and porticos. Among others the historic Meletti café, Palazzo dei Capitani and the church of San Francesco.

The cathedral of Ascoli Piceno, the cathedral of Santa Maria Madre di Dio and Sant'Emidio, is the main church of the city of Ascoli Piceno and the seat of the bishop. It is located in Piazza Arringo and, together with the Palazzo dell'Arengo, represents the centre of city life.

Known as the Salotto d'Italia, Piazza del Popolo is the heart of the historic center of Ascoli Piceno and is itself an open-air monument.

It was built on a pre-existing Italic theatre used by the Piceni for their rites.

Even today it is the civil and religious centre of Ascoli, marked by the presence of the Cathedral, the Bishop's Palace and the Town Hall known as the Arengo.
