Ascoli Piceno. The Church of San Francesco
This church is considered one of the best Italian works of Franciscan architecture, as well as the most representative Franciscan religious building in the Marche region. It was begun with the adjoining convent in 1258, consecrated in 1371 and completed with the dome in the 16th century. On the main facade, in Via del Trivio, there are three Gothic portals, while the right side acts as a scenic backdrop to the Piazza del Popolo and is characterized by the dynamic fifteenth-century apses, the fourteenth-century side portal surmounted by the monument to Julius II of 1510 and ends with an apsidal group of rare architectural model.

Ascoli Piceno. The Palazzo dei Capitani del Popolo
Overlooking Piazza del Popolo, it stands out for its elegant medieval crenellated tower next to the historic Meletti café. Built between the 13th and 14th centuries from the union of three small buildings separated by two rue, one of which was equipped with a tower which was later reused, it was remodeled following the fire that almost entirely destroyed the interior in 1535. The central portal, preceded by a staircase and surmounted by the monument to Paul III, the courtyard with three orders of loggias and the staircase, the latter built by Camillo Merli around 1550, date back to that period.
