Overview
Immerse yourself in a mystical and chivalrous atmosphere with our guided walk in Gradara. This perfectly preserved village has been nicknamed "Capital of the Middle Ages" because it still has intact all its defensive structures made of walls and towers that culminate in an austere but spectacular fortress.
But Gradara is also a place linked to a romantic and famous tragedy, the one of Paolo and Francesca, mentioned by the great poet Dante Alighieri in the Divine Comedy.
The guide will take you through this compelling journey to let you discover legends and reality of this mighty castle and its glorious fortress.
