Offida guided tour
Offida is one of The Most Beautiful Villages in Italy.
To visit:
- Piazza del Popolo: the triangular main piazza is dominated by the beautiful town hall, a fine example of the 15th century civic architecture in the Marche. The building has a lovely upper loggia and swallowtail battlements.
- The theatre Serpente Aureo: a beautiful 18th century theatre , decorated with stucco and gilded carvings.
- The church of Santa Maria della Rocca , that stands a little way from the main piazza. The Romanesque -gothic church is one of the most important examples of monastic art in Piceno. The building was a Longobard castle before being passed to the Abbey of Farfa around 1000. The present building dates back to 1330.
Offida is well known for hand-made lace. Lace making is a very ancient craft. Women can still be seen, seated at their doorways, working intently with bobbins, threads of white yarn and pins on designs of flowers and animals.
