Riparbella - rises in a beautiful position on the southern slopes of the Poggio di Nocola, on a tufo-sand ridge. Its development over time has taken a longitudinal form contrary to the other nearby towns that have circular forms. Standing on a hill, Riparbella is distinguished by an open, stunning view to the sea. The historical town centre, that rises around the medieval castle, dates back to around 1000A. It is worth taking time to explore the ancient alleyways and buildings, among which a well-preserved building from the XV century, the main house of the Marquis Carlotti. The Town Hall, the church of St. John the Baptist and the Monumental Cemetery by Architect Bellincioni, built at the beginning of the 20th century are also worth a visit.
