A miracle of harmony, built up slowly across the ages. An unknown region, that may be defined as summing up all the beauties of Italy. Ancona, the capital, is the great Adriatic commercial port, where you can visit the Basilica of St. Ciriaco, Palazzo degii Anziani, and Trajan’s Triumphal Arch. In Pesaro, where Rossini was born, are the Oliveriani Museums, and the Rocca Costanza. Urbino, with the Ducal Palace, the Collegio degii Scolopi, and the University, is
Raphael’s birthplace. Ascoli Piceno has Roman and medieval remains. In Macerate there is the ancient university, and the Sferisterio, where the Summer Opera Festival is held. Other major towns are Fermo, Tolentino, Recanati and Loreto famous for the Shrine of the Holy House.
