Jesi, Historic commune in Marche region, Italy

Iesi extends across 107 square kilometers of land in the Province of Ancona, positioned at an elevation of 97 meters above sea level.

The settlement transformed from a Roman colony named Aesis in 247 BC to a Byzantine center and later received the status of Royal City in 1194.

The Palazzo della Signoria, constructed in the 15th century, represents the architectural excellence and administrative importance of medieval Iesi.

Four distinct districts within Iesi - Mazzangrugno, Castelrosino, Tabano, and Santa Lucia - offer different residential and commercial environments for its 40,251 inhabitants.

Frederick II, who became Holy Roman Emperor, selected Iesi as his birthplace in December 1194, leading to its designation as a Royal City.
