The house with three apartments is at the heart of the historic old town, in a row of houses with independant entrance, on the (almost) car-free Piazza IV Novembre, by the inhabitants affectionately called La Piazzetta.

With enthusiasm I jumped into this project and renovate gently and lovingly the old simple flats. I made sure to use organic materials. In one part of the rooms are still the old furniture, as I found them. The rooms are large, the ceilings are supported by powerful beams. Old stone floors are still present to some extent. From the top apartment is a view over the rooftops, over the rolling hills to the sea or to the mountains.

The lowest and smallest apartment consists of a living room with a kitchenette, a bedroom with a double and a single bed and a small bathroom.

Cupramontana is a very lively town. On warm evenings, the residents move their living room unceremoniously out on the Piazzetta. So you will quickly contact if you want. It also held events and the Orieta restaurant occupies part of the Piazzetta. In the center, there are also some bars, bakeries and shops for daily needs. Monday's weekly market. Here you can find everything cheap, whatever your heart desires.

The central location in the Marche, makes Cupramontana the ideal starting point for all kinds of excursions and activities. Sports, nature, culture, and of course not forgetting the local delicacies.

Municipality

Emperor Frederick II spent his childhood  here!
A legend claims that Monte Roberto derives its name from Roberto il Guiscardo (1015-1085), while  an historical document  of 1079 reports that Roberto was probably a  Longobard  feudal layman, a "lord of the place”.
Monte Roberto became a real castle only in the course of the thirteenth century.
Visit the ancient Planina ,mentioned by Pliny the Elder, near St. Apollinare Abbey. Important ruins were visible up to the XVIII and XIX centuries: in 1881 a necropolis Piceno (VI century BC) was found in Noceto district and  the remains which were then brought to light are now kept in the National Archaeological Museum of Ancona. Do not miss them!
In 1219 Monte Roberto was already part of the County of Jesi until its split in 1808.
Have a walk along G. Leopoardi Street, then the “Borgo”, the historical centre which developed in the XVII and XVIII centuries.
Downstream from Monte Roberto, you can visit Pianello Vallesina which had a remarkable increase  in the last sixty years. It is partly divided with the municipality of Castelbellino and it initially grew around the church of Santa Maria del Trivio dating from the XVII century.
Do not forget to visit the church of St. Benedict built in 1921 – 1925.

Itinerary

Distance:  km 21

Time advised: 3 hours (on foot); an hour (by car)

Difficulty: easy

 

Starting from Santa Maria alle Moie Abbey, follow the road towards San Sisto and visit its Abbey;  cross Scisciano Bridge and have a look at Mill Marcelletti in Scisciano. Then go on your way towards Maiolati Spontini . 

A walk here allows you to experience a contact with a world of history and culture (Scisciano and Maiolati castles); of spirituality (Santa Maria alle Moie Abbey, San Sisto Abbey, the rural churches of Santa Liberata and San Pietro); as well as with a natural world and an amazing landscape, a patchwork of vineyards and olive-groves.

Going  downhill  back to Moie along the so-called Boccolina, do not forget to visit the small rural church of San Pietro at the bottom of it.
