Ancona is the busy administrative capital of the Marche and the largest city in the region. It may not seem an obvious tourist centre. Give it time, though, and you may acquire a taste for the salt and spice of this restless sea port, boasting a remarkable roman arch dedicated to the roman Emperor Trajan.
The tour starts with a stop at the ''Passetto'' monument, the memorial to the victims of the World War I.
The oldest part of town straddles Colle Guasco, the hill above the port. On its peak, high above the agitation of the modern city, stands Ancona's finest church and its most obvious landmark, the Medieval Cathedral of San Ciriaco, a pleasing mix of Romanesque and Gothic architecture.
Once visited the cathedral, you'll travel downhill on foot, crossing historical monuments such as the remains of a roman amphitheatre, the Palace of the Elders, the Church of Saint Francis, the elegant Pope Square and Mazzini Street with its historical fountain, a regimented row of 13 masked spouts. |
