Casetta Mentuccia: location
The B&B is in the municipality of San Ginesio, in the Marche region. The town lies within the Sibillini National Park, at an altitude of about 690 m. The town sits on a hill. From this height the view reaches the Sibillini Mountains, Monte Conero and the Adriatic Sea. That is why San Ginesio is called the "Balcone dei Sibillini" (Balcony of the Sibillini).
Casetta Mentuccia: what to see nearby
The medieval village of San Ginesio is the first place to visit. The walls were begun in 1308 and work went on for another 150 years. The main entrance is the 14th-century Porta Picena. A walkway along the walls offers a view of the historic center.
Piazza Gentili is home to the Collegiata di Santa Maria Assunta, the town's landmark building. The church was seriously damaged by the 2016 earthquake, so it is best to check whether it is open before visiting. Not far away is the Ospedale dei Pellegrini, once a hostel for travelers heading to Rome or Loreto.
After the 2016 earthquake, some historic complexes, including that of Santi Tommaso e Barnaba, were damaged and remained closed for a long time. Before planning a visit, it is therefore wise to check which buildings are open.
