To see in Fabriano
Fabriano has a medieval center, beautiful artwork in its many historic churches, unique museums and great food scene! It is a UNESCO creative city for craftsmanship.
Fabriano was founded in the middle ages, and became a prosperous center for paper making, bringing breakthrough changes to the technology. It was part of the Pope State of Central Italy and governed at times by local lords, or people’s elected Podestà (Governors). This story of centuries is told by our many churches, remarkable artwork by Gentileschi, Guercino, Donatello, Bellini and Gothic frescos by Allegretto di Nunzio. The town was the birthplace of Gentile da Fabriano, Italy's greatest master of the late 14th Century International Gothic style of painting. His rare paintings are now in Florence, Paris and New York. In the early '900 Fabriano was a prominent industrial centre thanks to its paper factory and several mills along the river, in this period the architect Giulio Meloni left his heritage of art deco and eclectic style.
