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.

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.

Piazza dell'Arengo or Piazza Arringo, is so called because of the popular gatherings that were held there. Today it is the civil and religious center of Ascoli, marked by the presence of the Cathedral, the Episcopal palaces and the Town Hall known as dell'Arengo.
