Macerata: An Overview
Macerata province occupies the central part of the Marche, a landscape of gentle hills running from the Adriatic coast to the Sibillini Mountains on the Umbrian border. Macerata city, with about 42,000 inhabitants, is set on a hill above the Potenza river valley. The Sferisterio, a neoclassical open-air arena originally built for pallone col bracciale (a ball game), now hosts a summer opera season.
The Monti Sibillini National Park, shared with Umbria, covers the western edge of the province. The Sibillini range includes Monte Vettore (2,476 m) and the Piano Grande, a high-altitude karst plateau famous for its spring wildflower display. The 2016 earthquake caused severe damage to several towns in the Sibillini area, particularly Visso and Ussita.
Recanati, birthplace of the poet Giacomo Leopardi (1798-1837), is a pilgrimage site for Italian literature. The Colle dell'Infinito, the hill behind Leopardi's family palazzo that inspired his most famous poem, is now a public park.
The University of Macerata, founded in 1290, is one of the oldest in Italy and in Europe.
