MarcheAmore - Zimmer der Gräfin

'Le Stanze della Contessa' is a three-storey flat that offers guests three bedrooms, three bathrooms, one of which is the master, a kitchen and an elegant living room where they can admire finely restored frescoes, among the most beautiful in the Marche region. This flat is part of the MarcheAmore residences of Palazzo Vinci-Gigliucci and is one of three luxury flats: La Bottega di Giacomino, which can accommodate a maximum of four people; Il Passaggio Segreto (can accommodate a maximum of two people); Le Stanze della Contessa (can accommodate a maximum of six people); and a Piano Nobile, where the splendour of the Renaissance is fully appreciated, with frescoes, marble statues and works of art attributed to past masters such as Canova. Palazzo Vinci is located in the heart of Fermo, close to numerous sites of historical, artistic and cultural interest. The historical centre of Fermo is enclosed by the 14th-century Sforza walls, complete with gates and towers. The gateways still visible are dedicated to Saints Anthony, Catherine and Julian. The heart of the city is the main square, Piazza del Popolo, enclosed between two wide rows of arcades and undoubtedly one of the most evocative places in Fermo. Here you will find the Palazzo dei Priori, the Town Hall, the Picture Gallery and the Piceno Archaeological Museum. The Pinacoteca houses works from the Middle Ages to the 19th century, including works by artists from the Marche region. The Archaeological Museum displays pre-Roman artefacts from Fermo, including belts, urns and jewellery from the Piceno era. Inside the palace is the 'Sala del Mappamondo' (Map of the World), entirely furnished in walnut and containing the library's oldest holdings of around 16,000 volumes, mostly dating back to the 16th century and mostly from donations by Romolo Spezioli, the trusted doctor in Rome of Queen Christina of Sweden. The room houses the Mappamondo, designed by cartographer Silvestro Amanzio Moroncelli, which has a diameter of about two metres and is of excellent quality. Fermo is rich in churches, the most famous of which is undoubtedly the Cathedral, or Cathedral of the Assumption of Mary. It is located in the upper part of the city, near the Diocesan Museum. Inside the Cathedral, you can visit the excavations, including the impressive mosaic of the pagan temple. The whole area has a viewpoint called Belvedere or Piazzale del Grifalco. The Teatro dell'Aquila is one of the largest opera houses in Italy, with a capacity of about 124 boxes and a stage area of 350 square metres. Of great value is the ceiling, painted in tempera by Luigi Cochetti (Rome), a pupil of Minardi. It depicts the Numbers of Olympus, with Jupiter, Juno, the Three Graces and the six hours of nocturnal dancing to the song of Apollo. On top of the Girfalco hill stands the charming town of Fermo, about 6 km from the Adriatic Sea. Fermo is one of the most important and active centres in the region, thanks to its history, business activities and a continuous programme of tourist and cultural events, among the most interesting in the region. Its territory can be divided into two parts: the historical part, which occupies the entire historic centre and stretches for several kilometres, is medieval, while the more modern part of the city is emerging outside the centre. The area is a mix of sea and hills, where it is possible to enjoy wide beaches and stroll among enchanting seaside villages. The province of Fermo is made up of 40 municipalities: Montegiorgio, Smerillo, Porto Sant'Elpidio, Amandola, Pedaso, Moresco, Campofilone, Falerone and many others. The coastline is characterised by long beaches, including the equipped beach of Porto Sant'Elpidio, Porto San Giorgio and Civitanova. Finally, to thank you for your trust, we will open the doors to the most evocative part of Palazzo Vinci Gigliucci, the Piano Nobile, once inhabited by the patricians of this illustrious family. In this enchanting place, time seems to have stood still; everything has remained as it was in the 19th century, when it was inhabited by Signor Vinci Gigliucci. Frescoes, mirrors and works of great historical value are ready to reveal themselves to your eyes, transporting you to a distant past that you will hardly forget.
