View of San Marino

Italy

San Marino

The ancient hilltop Republic of San Marino, with medieval towers and sweeping views over the Adriatic coast.

Destination story

A place with its own rhythm.

San Marino is one of the world’s oldest republics and one of its smallest countries, surrounded by Italy. Its historic centre and the three towers on Mount Titano are a UNESCO World Heritage Site, with stone streets, government palaces and views stretching to the Adriatic Sea.

For WOFA participants, San Marino offers a truly unique stage high above the Riviera. Groups can perform in a medieval setting and visit a sovereign state with its own traditions, just a short drive from Rimini.
