" The most beautiful city? San Leo, a castle and two churches. "
Umberto Eco
And our journey begins from St. Leo in the province of Rimini.
The village takes its name from Saint Leo who evangelized the area becoming its first bishop. His rock
stands its mighty ramparts and its heavy curtains on a hill by the High Montefeltro, was transformed over time into a fortress and prison in skullcap.
The hamlet, very small, everything revolves around the route that leads from Via Montefeltro in Piazza Dante to exit via Monte Rosa. But in its modest size
San Leo charm and offers visitors magic ...
From here you can reach in about half an hour Torriana of the country, and then to the Castle of Montebello , famous for the legend of Azzurrina . It is said that the child had been albino albinism and at that time was connected with witchcraft, so the parents, lords of Montebello, the dyed hair repeatedly with pigments, vegetable extremely volatile. These, thanks to the inability of albino hair to hold the pigment, gave the baby blue reflections that originated the nickname Azzurrina . On June 21, 1375
the girl disappeared and the legend it that the ghost of the girl has been trapped in the castle and returns to be felt in the summer solstice shine each year.
