Has anyone been to Ancona in the Marche? If so, I would like to hear about your visit.
Thanks.

Several times; diary material collected on my little placeholder page for the town here, and notice also the footer bar on that page.

Once you figure out what you need to know, come back and ask any more specific questions, of course.

I liked Ancona...of course, I am predisposed to cities.

But Ancona has a nice position on the water, an attractive "centro storico" with some very attractive buildings and a grand piazza. There is a Roman arch on the waterfront and an imposing "duomo" on the hill above town. It is very convenient to some lovely seaside resorts in the shadow of the Conero headlands. I would be happy to go back.

Thank you for you replies. I just wanted some general feed back on the City. I plan to visit there in search of relatives in September.
