The duchy of Urbino, under the power of the Vatican, was directed by Federico di Montefeltro in the XVth century. It knew a strong expansion during this time with the construction of a splendid palate of the Renaissance very richly decorated thanks to the work of many of the greatest artists of this time.
Its medieval lanes are pleasant, they lead to the fortress on the top which offers a very beautiful sight on the city.
