Walking Through Tolentino – Between Medieval Beauty and Unexpected Surprises

#mediterranean Tolentino, tucked between the Sibillini mountains and the Adriatic, is best known for its basilica of San Nicola, where pilgrims and art lovers alike can admire its 14th-century frescoes. This small town also played a role in Napoleonic history with the treaty of Tolentino signed here in 1797. Spend the day visiting the piazza della Libertà, the civic museum inside the castello della Rancia, and the delightfully offbeat museum of caricature. It’s a great stopover for those driving through the Marche region or exploring the countryside of Macerata province.
