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 crenellated crowning, turrets, Gothic arch openings with mullioned windows, exposed bricks and a small private chapel annexed to the structure.
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.
