The expansion of the Monumental Cemetery of Jesi represents one of the boldest projects by architect Leonardo Ricci, one of the most emblematic representatives of Italian "Brutalism," who also designed the Palaces of Justice in Florence and Savona. It was completed between 1984 and 2001 in collaboration with colleagues Franco Luminari and Silvano Rossini. The project encompasses a rectangular courtyard area, with various types of tombs arranged along the perimeter. The center, largely landscaped, houses a covered chapel and a series of elevated walkways. Beyond the individual elements, the complex is characterized as an urban project in which paths, stairways, views, suspended plazas, and volumes of varying shapes and textures punctuate the space, creating resting places and observation points that allow contemplation of both the interior of the complex and the surrounding landscape, transforming this project into a sort of "city of the dead in relation to the surrounding territory and the city of the living." The funerary blocks are connected by intersecting stairways and ramps, and thus the planimetric organization emphasizes the absence of hierarchies: there are no viewpoints or main paths; however, in one of the highest areas of the cemetery, Ricci erected a pyramid whose sharp form serves as a landmark and a panoramic point over the city of Jesi. The project fully embodies the Brutalist poetics, celebrating the raw material of reinforced concrete, which Ricci had already explored since the 1950s. Here, in a place of memory, the rough marks of the concrete accentuate the sense of authenticity and monumentality. Today, forty years later, the project continues to elicit mixed reactions. Some find it cold and inhospitable, while others consider it a masterpiece.

The structure of Castello Mancini stands out on the small eminence that dominates the Montecappone district, recalling an ancient period through a building that is not a true historic villa. Although it represents a characteristic element of the territory, Castello Mancini was built from a project by Eng. Ernesto Galeazzi only in the 1920s. Intended for the Mancini family, already owners of the first silk mill in the Fontedamo district and the homonymous paper mill in Jesi, it is a reproduction that followed the medieval taste in vogue in the early 1900s. Castello Mancini represents the desire to recall an idea of the Middle Ages that was very common at the time, with a fortified medieval construction, equipped with a crenellated crown, turrets, Gothic arch openings with mullioned windows, exposed bricks and a small private chapel annexed to the structure. The building is in terracotta, with stone decorations, with the façade dominated by a coat of arms created for the Mancini family

The building is made of terracotta, with stone decorations, with a facade dominated by a coat of arms created for the Mancini family, the first owner of the property. Before reaching it, you are greeted by a 50-meter tree-lined avenue, surrounded by tall, century-old trees that crown the evocative structure of the building.

Small medieval village whose peculiarity is the "La Scarpa" walkway. In August 2024 it is being restored, when complete it will offer very interesting views.
