The guided tour of Rimini will make you discover the ancient heart of the town with all the hidden beauties of this pearl of the Romagna Riviera that is not just sea and beach. It starts from the monumental entrance door to the historic centre, the imposing Arch of Augustus built in Istrian stone in 27 BC. in honour of the Emperor, which is the oldest preserved Roman arch in northern Italy.

We walk along the high street up to Piazza Tre Martiri, the ancient Roman forum, the political and commercial centre of Rimini where we can admire the statue of the Roman Emperor Julius Caesar, the Temple dedicated to Sant’ Antonio da Padova and the characteristic Clock Tower which it marks the time and the zodiacal movements and the phases of the moon. A few steps away we visit the Cathedral, known as the Malatesta Temple, testifying to the magnificence of the Malatesta family, Lords of Rimini in the 1400s; inside we can admire the beautiful Crucifix by Giotto painted on wood in the 1300s and a precious fresco by Piero della Francesca.

Walking through the streets of the centre we notice that the medieval style mixes with the decorations of the Renaissance style and we are ready to explore the most important square in Rimini, Piazza Cavour, with the beautiful Pigna fountain which for its curious shape and water games also fascinated Leonardo da Vinci. On the square we find the Gothic Palace of the Podestà from the 1300s, the Arengo Palace from the Middle Ages where the people's council met, the Neoclassical Galli Theatre and the suggestive ancient eighteenth-century Fish Market where fish was sold.

From this corner of Rimini we move to another building that houses the Fulgor Cinema which we will visit outside, today a museum dedicated to Fellini with original posters and many other visual documents, where the director saw his first film and which he immortalised in the film Amarcord . We end the guided tour to the magnificent Tiberius Bridge which for over 2000 years has fascinated visitors with its five Doric-style arches, one of the largest surviving Roman bridges on the Canal Port of Rimini with the new square on the water.
