Verucchio, Medieval commune in Emilia-Romagna, Italy
Situated 330 meters above sea level, Verucchio extends across hills that provide views of the Marecchia river valley and the Romagna coastline.
The Malatesta family established their initial power base in Verucchio during the 13th century, constructing fortifications against rival nobles from Urbino.
The Archaeological Museum in Verucchio displays collections from the Villanovan period, including artifacts that reveal early settlement patterns from 1200-900 BCE.
The municipality contains two main residential areas: the hilltop historical center and Villa Verucchio in the valley, connected by local transportation services.
The Franciscan Convent houses a 13th-century crucifixion painting from the Riminese school and maintains a cypress tree traditionally linked to Saint Francis.
