The Castle of Gradara is one of the most fascinating and best preserved medieval strongholds in Italy, located in the Marche region, on the border with Romagna.
Urbino
The city stands on two hills, and its urban profile, with the majestic Doge's Palace towering over the panorama, perfectly embodies the ideal of a "Renaissance city". Also noteworthy are the National Gallery of the Marche, the Birthplace of Raphael Sanzio, the Oratories of San Giovanni and San Giuseppe, the Cathedral and the Albornoz Fortress and Parco della Resistenza.
