The Abbey of Fiastra was founded by Cistercian monks coming from the Abbey of Chiaravalle of Milan: twelve monks arrived on 12 November 1142 and started the construction of the Abbey. The Abbey flourished in the following three centuries, it became one of the most important monasteries in Middle Italy and its lands and properties extended over the territory of Le Marche as far as Emilia Romagna (Rimini) and Umbria (Foligno, Spoleto). The very good state of preservation of the entire building complex will let you admire an example of the typically Cistercian architecture which is based on simplicity and humility, in full accordance with St. Bernard of Clairvaux’s reformation of monastic life.

We went to a music concert in the abbey and it was exquisite. The nearby walks are also very pleasant but it does get quite busy.

Great location for the annual Opera Festival. I have been going there many times over the last 30 years, and I must say that the arena Sferisterio is a unique place to enjoy the magic of the "opera lirica". I recommend watching the opera at Sferisterio at least once in a lifetime!

Don't miss the statue of Caesar and the town models that are close by to the Arco di Augusto. Very pretty at night.
