Piazza Maggiore<br />

Sec. XIX. È forse la piazza più singolare<br />

del riminese. La sua forma semicircolare<br />

definita dal porticato neoclassico si<br />

deve all’ingegno dell’architetto<br />

Francesco Cosci. È il cuore del paese in<br />

cui avvengono le tenzoni delle varie<br />

contrade che danno vita al Palio del<br />

Daino.<br />

Dating from the 19 th century, this is<br />

perhaps the most unusual square in the<br />

<strong>Rimini</strong> area. The architect Francesco<br />

Cosci designed this semi-circular<br />

“square” that is surrounded by a<br />

neoclassical colonnade. It is the heart of<br />

the village and is where contests are<br />

held between its <strong>di</strong>stricts during the<br />

Palio del Daino.<br />

Sorge su un promontorio dove nelle<br />

giornate serene lo sguardo abbraccia la<br />

costa da Ravenna fino a Fano. Dal<br />

terrazzo più alto si vedono i monti<br />

dell’Appennino marchigiano e San<br />

Marino sembra a due passi. Ricca<br />

residenza dei Malatesta conserva il<br />

bello stemma che si trova all’ingresso e<br />

gli straor<strong>di</strong>nari affreschi con scene <strong>di</strong><br />

battaglia e ritratti <strong>di</strong> antichi eroi (1370).<br />

Attualmente chiuso per restauri.<br />

The fortress stands on a promontory<br />

from where, on a clear day, it is possible<br />

to see the whole coast from Ravenna to<br />

Fano. The highest terrace affords views<br />

as far as the Apennine hills in the<br />

Marche region and San Marino seems<br />

almost close enough to touch. An<br />

elegant Malatesta residence, it still has<br />

a beautiful coat of arms at the entrance<br />

and houses extraor<strong>di</strong>nary frescos of<br />

battle scenes and portraits of ancient<br />

heroes (1370). It is currently closed for<br />

restoration.<br />

Santuario della Madonna <strong>di</strong> Bonora<br />

Sanctuary of the Madonna of Bonora<br />

È uno dei luoghi <strong>di</strong> culto più importanti<br />

e conosciuti del Riminese, immerso nel<br />

verde con ampio sguardo sulla Valle del<br />

Ventena. L’immagine della Madonna che<br />

allatta risale al XV secolo.<br />

This is one of the most important and<br />

best-known places of worship in the<br />

<strong>Rimini</strong> area. It is surrounded by lush<br />

greenery and offers spectacular views of<br />

the Ventena Valley. The image of the<br />

breastfee<strong>di</strong>ng Madonna dates from the<br />
