Rimini is resort town, located in Italy on the Adriatic Sea. The history of the city dates back to the distant 3rd century BC. The ancient Romans founded their colony in the city - Ariminum. Rimini served as a kind of bastion for defense local residents from the constant attacks of the Gauls.

A large number of attractions of today's Rimini were founded during the times of Ancient Rome. In 1860, the city was included in the Kingdom of Italy and from that moment on the city began to be equipped with luxurious buildings.

During the war of 1941 - 1945, Rimini was often bombed. After the end of hostilities, the residents of Italy set an important goal for themselves - to develop the tourism infrastructure in this city.

This is the main square of Rimini, where there are a large number of architectural monuments characterizing the most different eras. The square contains several palaces, and right in its center is the famous white marble fountain “Pigna”. In addition, not far from the square there is a market that has been selling fresh fish and seafood for more than two centuries.

Location: Piazza Cavour - 27.

Its second name is the “Shishka” fountain, which was built during the Roman Empire, in 1400. “Pigna” is made of white marble and consists of 3 tiers in the form of rings. It is crowned with the symbol of independence of the Roman Empire - a fir cone. In 1543 it was reconstructed. In ancient times it was the only source of drinking water, but even today it flows with water suitable for drinking.

Location: Piazza Cavour - 11.

This palace is also located on the main square of the city. It was intended for the residence of the head of the city administration. The palace building has a very severe appearance and looks more like a fortress. On its facade there are five windows and decorations in the form of teeth, which are now attributes of decoration, and in the old days also served a protective function. Currently, the Palazzo del Podestà is used to host various exhibitions.

Location: Place Cavour.

The second name it bears sounds like the Square of the Three Martyrs. It was founded in the 200s BC. Previously, it served as a place for citizens to discuss various public issues.

There is a platform on the square from which many speakers spoke. Historians claim that even Julius Caesar spoke from this rostrum. The square acquired its current name in 1944 in honor of three Italian partisans who were hanged here by the Nazis.

Location: Piazza Tre Martiri.

This tower is located on Tre Martiri Square. It was built in the 16th century. The tower is crowned with a bell and a cross, and its façade is decorated with ancient masonry and forged decorations. In addition, in the 18th century the tower was decorated with a large clock and an astrological calendar. This calendar indicates the movement of the sun through all signs of the zodiac. In the evening the tower is illuminated.

This is the oldest arch built during the Roman Empire in the country. It was built in 27 BC and dedicated to Emperor Augustus. In the Middle Ages, the city was surrounded by a fortress wall to protect against enemy attacks. The arch was the southern gate to Rimini. Currently, the Arch of Augustus separates the pedestrian and road areas of the city.

It was built in the 1st century AD. However, after 5 centuries the structure was destroyed as a result of the Gothic invasion. The bridge was restored only in 1680. Local residents nicknamed it the “Devil's Bridge” because they believe that this structure has survived to this day only thanks to the help of Satan. Now the Tiberius Bridge is used both for pedestrians and for cars.

Construction of the palace began in 1437 and lasted 15 years. It belonged to the then ruler of the city, Sigismund Malatesta. The castle was built as a defensive fortress with powerful walls, protecting the ruler from popular uprisings.

Sigismund Malateste died in this palace. In 1821, the building was converted into military barracks. Five years later, the walls surrounding the castle were destroyed. Currently, cultural events are held in the preserved palace building.

Location: Piazza Malatesta.

The original temple building was built in the 12th century and was considered the best embodiment of Franciscan Gothic. After 3 centuries, the city government decided to rebuild the temple-mausoleum into a family museum. However, due to financial difficulties, the reconstruction of the main facade was not completed and the interior was not as intended. In the 19th century, the monastery located next to the cathedral was destroyed, and the temple was re-consecrated. Today it is a city church, open to all visitors.

Rimini is the second most populous city (at the beginning of 2017, it was home to 148,856 inhabitants). It is located on the shores of the Adriatic Sea, between the Ausa and Marecchia rivers, a few kilometers from the Titano mountain peak and dwarf state San Marino.

and the Adriatic coast, Riviera Romagnola, are associated with beautiful equipped beaches and non-stop entertainment. All this is absolutely true, but it is completely wrong to think that Rimini is only the sea and discos. The streets and squares of the city, noisy and beautiful, are in fact the “guardians” of many archaeological and historical treasures.

The history of Rimini has its roots in ancient times, and this, in addition to the privileged, historically strategic, geographical location and excellent regional cuisine, one of the most popular and revered in Italy, makes this city a place worth visiting and exploring, not just superficially, but thoroughly.

Founded by the Romans after their victory over the Gauls, ancient Ariminium was very important locality: It was no coincidence that the Romans began with Rimini the construction of the two main “arteries” of Ancient Rome: Via Flaminia, which still connects Rimini with Rome, and Via Emilia, the path connecting the city with Piacenza. These two most important ancient paths are “remembered” by different peoples and different conquerors: from the Byzantines to the Lombards, from Malatesta to the Venetian doges. Each of them left their mark on Rimini, giving the city a number of important and still architecturally remarkable attractions, such as the amphitheater, the Malatesta fortress, the Arch of Emperor Augustus and the Temple of Malatesta.

Marina Centro is the central quarter of Rimini, also known as the "Marina".

Marina Rimini became an important tourist resort with the opening of the Kursaal Hotel (1872) and the Grand Hotel (1908).

Church of St. Giovanni Evangelista

La chiesa di San Giovanni Evangelista, built in 1247, is another iconic place in the city that is worth a visit. Rare frescoes from the fourteenth-century Rimini School of Art are kept there.
Among other religious architectural monuments, we advise you to visit il Tempietto di Sant’Antonio da Padova (1518), the churches of le chiese di San Bernardino (1759) and San Francesco Saverio.

Now, I think, it’s time to look at the architectural monuments of the Roman era: l’Arco d’Augusto, il Ponte di Tiberio.

Arch of Emperor Augustus (Arco d'Augusto)

- one of the most visited monuments in the city by tourists, and in addition, this arch is the oldest Roman arch in Italy. It is believed that the arch was built in 27 BC. e. (after the completion of the road between Rome and the Adriatic coast - Via Flaminia).

Temple of Malatesta

This church building, erected during the late Middle Ages, has another official name – Church of San Francesco. The ancient building in the Franciscan Gothic style in the 15th century was supposed to become the mausoleum of the ruler Sigismundo Pandolfo (nickname Malatesta) and his wife Isotta.

The church project did not receive approval from the clergy, since the building did not comply with the canons of Christianity: according to the plan, there should not even be crosses in it. But Malatesta was adamant, and the work began.

A group of architects led by Leon Batista Alberti began work on the reconstruction of the building, which was never completed due to the death of the architect and a banal lack of money. The temple is still not completed: the central facade is not finished and the dome of the church is missing.

Today in Tempo Malatesta you can see frescoes depicting Malatesta himself and his wife. In the Temple, not far from the entrance, lie the remains of Malatesta himself. Another attraction of the Temple is the large work “The Crucifixion”, authored by the great master Giotto.
