Tips from the Community

MARCELLO PIRINI
April 8, 2025, Ciclovia del Savio

The Roman centuriation is an unprecedented hydraulic work carried out by Roman surveyors in the third century BC in the territory from Rimini to the banks of the Ronco river: the vast plain crossed by numerous waterways was divided to give shape to large plots of land governed by a hydraulic network of canals and drainage ditches still active today, a perfect geometry with a minimal margin of error despite the absence of digital devices: who knows what they would think of our territorial bodies today after the recent events that have occurred.........🤔

Piazza del Popolo is the main square of Cesena, located in the historic city centre. The square is home to the town hall, the Rocchetta di Piazza and the Fontana Masini, a fountain from the late 16th century. The square is an important location for public events and markets, which take place every Wednesday and Saturday. Historically, the square was laid out in its current form around 1400 by Andrea Malatesta. The square has had several names over the years, and was given its current name after World War II.
