De Porta San Francesco is the most monumental and iconic city gate of the historic town of Penne, located on four hills. The gate forms the main entrance to the medieval center and is a striking example of local architecture. The gate owes its name to Francis of Assisi, who according to legend visited Penne on September 16, 1216. He came to the city at the time to establish peace between two violent, rival family clans. In memory of this historic visit, the original medieval city gate was later named after him. Although the origin of the gate is medieval, its current baroque appearance dates from 1780 (with later adjustments around 1870). The gate, to be renovated, came from the drawing board of architect Francesco Di Sio and was completely rebuilt, along with the adjacent buildings. Since then, they have formed a monumental, stylish entrance to 'the city of brick'. Bonus: if you stand in front of the gate and look closely, you will see the patron saint of Penne, San Massimo, at the top of the gate.

Nice route for walking or cycling. Sharing the path, each at their own pace. Historical context: this beautiful pine forest was planted from 1923 onwards by the visionary Luigi Corrado Filiani and even gave the town its name. Today you walk in the shade of thousands of umbrella pines, with the Adriatic Sea always nearby. A quiet and atmospheric route where nature, history and coastal experience come together perfectly.

The bridge is always open, very convenient and scenic. Beware of tricked-out e-bikes, which use this cycle path as an alternative to the roads open to traffic.
