One of the most beautiful towns in Italy and the capital of the Middle Ages … where are we? At Gradara!

On the border between Marche Region and the Romagna hills lies the picturesque village of Gradara enclosed within the walls of a beautiful Malatesta fortress.

Gradara Castle is one of the most beautiful and best preserved fortresses in Italy. It is also known for being the probable site of one of the most famous love tragedies in history: the legend of Paolo and Francesca.

The visit to the castle is a must. The rooms are furnished with original furniture of the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries, moreover it is possible to see the torture room and the armory.

The tour continues along the outside walls that enclose the village, enjoying, from the highest tower, a breathtaking view of the hills and the Adriatic coast.
