Profile
Urbs Salvia was an ancient and large city of the Piceno, a Roman colony and town hall. Today Urbisaglia, on which the Orange Flag flies, is a town that dominates the Fiastra valley, surrounded by walls, worthy heir to that distant and glorious Roman city of which we find rich testimony in the Archaeological Park. Recognized as a Regional Archaeological Park in 1994, it covers about 40 hectares and is the most important and spectacular of the Marche. The visit route descends along the slope of the hill, through a convenient route of about a kilometer. You can thus grasp in its entirety the structure of the Roman city, which descends from the hill of San Biagio until it reaches, articulated in a series of natural terraces, the flat valley floor, bordered to the east by the escarpment on the Fiastra river. You can visit the Tank, the Theater, the Nicchioni Building, the Tempio-cryptoportico complex dedicated to the Salus Augusta and the Amphitheatre built by Lucio Flavio Silva. The city walls are also clearly visible, preserved for several hundred meters on three of its four sides.
Among the typical products of the territory we include Red Piceno DOC wine, PGI meat, honey and craft beer.
