Fermo — Cisterne Romane & Piazza del Popolo

Marche

Beneath Fermo's elegant Piazza del Popolo lies an extensive network of Roman cisterns, thirty interconnected rooms that once supplied the ancient city's water and remain remarkably well preserved. Above ground, the piazza and surrounding streets give a wide hilltop view over the countryside toward the Sibillini mountains.
