Fano

This self-guided audio walking tour explores Fano’s historic heart, tracing the city’s Roman roots, medieval defenses, sacred art, and maritime character. It will appeal to first-time visitors who enjoy history, architecture, old town streets, and the atmosphere of an Adriatic port.

The route begins in Fano Historical Center, where the old Roman street plan still shapes the city’s lively lanes and piazzas. From there, you follow a path through the Malatesta Fort area, San Domenico, the Fano Marine Center, and the Cathedral of Saint Mary Maggiore, before continuing to the Church of Saint Mary Nuova and the monumental Arch of Augustus, one of Fano’s most important Roman landmarks. The walk then reaches Darsena Borghese and the remains of the Basilica of Vitruvius, linking the city center to its seafaring side.

In the final stretch, the tour returns to Fano’s religious and defensive heritage with more views of the Malatesta Fort, the Church of San Pietro in Valle, the Basilica di San Paterniano, and ends at Sangallo Bastion. Along the way, the most memorable experiences include standing before ancient Roman remains, stepping into serene churches, discovering fortress walls, and feeling the shift from quiet historic streets to the open, salt-tinged edge of the harbor.
