The castle is worth a visit! Recommended

Saludecio is registered in the Italian Association of Painted Villages because of the 50 splendid murals that color its streets.

A beautiful medieval village steeped in charm and history, it's also worth visiting the interior and the patrol path.

Dating back to the Malatesta era and still well preserved today, the village of San Clemente is one of the best destinations in the Romagna hinterland. The walls and bastions are clearly visible, enclosing the center of the village as they once did. Not far away is also Castelleale, commissioned in 1388 by Leale Malatesta, bishop of Rimini.

Beautiful village not far from the sea

It is one of the four castles (together with Casteldimezzo, Gradara and Granarola) built between the 10th and 13th centuries, in order to constitute an organic defensive system for the control of the Siligata pass, in the border area between the Church of Ravenna and the Pesaro Church first, and then between the Malatestas of Rimini and those of Pesaro. The village, originally called Fiorenzuola, took on the specification of Focara in 1889, probably due to the presence in ancient times of fires that signaled the position to sailors, or due to the presence of "fornacelle" where bricks and terracotta were cooked (from the Romagna dialect fuchèr or fughèr, i.e. fire to cook bricks).

The village of San Clemente dates back to the Malatesta era and its origins are still clearly visible today. The walls enclose, as in the past, the heart of the historic center and the complex known as Castelleale. It is one of the rare examples remaining in the Rimini area of a building that is both a large farm and a fortified villa, built in 1388 by Leale Malatesta, bishop of Rimini.
