Palazzo Antico B&B: location

The bed and breakfast is along Via Pretoriana, an uphill street lined with buildings from different periods, where "rue" (the narrow lanes) and raised passageways alternate. The craft workshops occupy the same premises that once drew mountain people coming down from the villages of the Valle Castellana with mules loaded with goods. Along the street you can spot rusticated portals, Gothic two-light windows and balconies supported by travertine brackets.

Palazzo Antico B&B: what to see nearby

The historic center of Ascoli Piceno is explored on foot. Piazza Arringo owes its name to the popular assemblies of the Middle Ages, the "arenghi", and is surrounded by the Cathedral of Sant'Emidio, the Baptistery of San Giovanni, the Palazzo Vescovile, Palazzo Panichi and the Palazzo dell'Arengo; the two elliptical travertine fountains, with bronze sea horses by Giorgio Paci, were inaugurated in 1884. Piazza del Popolo, in white travertine, is surrounded by loggias. Among the city's historic bridges is the Augustan bridge of Porta Solestà, built of dry-laid travertine blocks.
