Medieval village –
Wandering around Altidona, the small medieval village, perched on a hill, the village seems to have been founded by the Piceni people, at the time of the Punic Wars, as evidenced by Roman remains, especially villae, with sea views, such as that of Barbula, well-known palmense wine producer. In the twelfth century. the scattered settlements are abandoned and the inhabitants create a new castle around the parish church of Santa Maria and San Ciriaco, transferred to the hill of the current town. Its history was then closely linked to that of Fermo.
Even today it is possible to admire the walls that enclose the medieval town.
Certainly deserve a visit to the church of Santa Maria and San Ciriaco, which houses a table, attributed to Vincenzo Pagani, depicting a Madonna and Child, two saints and donor.
