Ascoli Piceno, Administrative province in Marche, Italy.
The province stretches from the Adriatic Sea to the Sibillini Mountains, encompassing 33 municipalities across 1,228 square kilometers of central Italian territory.
The area belonged to the Picentes tribe until 268 BCE, when Romans established control and transformed the region into a significant administrative center.
The province received the Gold Medal of Military Valor for its resistance actions during World War II and maintains this recognition through memorials.
Visitors reach the province through the San Benedetto del Tronto-Ascoli Piceno railway line or via the A14 motorway connecting to major Italian cities.
The province contains numerous medieval hilltop settlements where local artisans continue producing traditional olive-based recipes passed down through generations.
