Premilcuore, Italian comune
Premilcuore is a small village in the Province of Forlì-Cesena, built on a rocky outcrop surrounded on three sides by the river Rabbi. Its narrow winding streets lined with old stone buildings, the historic Porta Fiorentina gate with its 1593 clock, and modest churches form the core of this medieval settlement.
The village was controlled by the Counts of Guidi around the 12th century, serving as a small fortress until Florence gained dominance in the region. It adopted its first statutes in 1379, approved at the Oratorio di San Lorenzo, and later became part of the Province of Forlì in 1923.
The town's name possibly derives from Latin roots connected to its history as a trading place in the mountains. Walking through its narrow streets and past old stone homes, visitors experience how people organized their daily lives centuries ago.
The village sits about 25 miles (40 km) from Forlì and is easily reached by car via scenic routes following the Rabbi river. A small information point near the main square provides maps and advice about hiking trails, the wildlife museum, and local accommodations.
The village holds the Orange Flag certification from the Italian Touring Club, awarded to communities known for cleanliness and environmental care. This recognition reflects its commitment to sustainable tourism and preserving the natural mountain landscape for visitors.
