Longiano
Piazza Tre Martiri, 8
47020 Longiano (FC)
Official Website
Longiano is a wonderful village which lays on a hill at the edge of the
Rubicone Valley, on the way from Cesena to Rimini. It boasts of a noble
past under the Malatestas (as a proof, the Castle, which today hosts the
'Tito Balestra Foundation')
and knew a terrible time during the Second World War, because of the
presence of the Gothic Line. Among the monuments that worth a visit, the
Sanctuary of the Holy Crucifix, the Italian Museum of Cast Iron and the Petrella Theatre ,
very appreciated by the actors.
Voted in 1992 among the 'ideal villages
of Europe', Longiano has either a rich agricultural economy (cherries
and oil) or, in the plain, some farms.
The Settimana Longianese in July
represents, eventually, the main feast of the village.
