Province of Pescara

The Province of Pescara extends from the Adriatic Sea to the Apennine Mountains, covering 1,230 square kilometers across 46 municipalities in central Italy.

The provincial capital, Pescara, evolved from a Roman settlement named Aternum in 214 BCE into a vital trading port along the Adriatic coast.

The Province maintains deep connections to traditional festivals, regional cuisine featuring seafood specialties, and numerous medieval churches scattered throughout its towns.

The province connects to major Italian cities through the Abruzzo Airport, railway stations, and the A14 motorway that runs along the Adriatic coast.

The Ponte del Mare in Pescara stands as Italy's largest bicycle and pedestrian bridge, linking the northern and southern sections of the provincial capital.
