Frasassi Caves


Frasassi Caves are part of a complex ipogeo system that extends for approximately 18 kms inside the Regional Park of Gola della Rossa and Frasassi. Discovered in 1971 and opened to the public since 1974, they have already been visited by more than ten million people. They are of great geological interest an in about an hour smooth route a wonderful natural fairy-world emphasized by a lighting system carefully realized by the set designer Cesarini da Senigallia, can be admired. Small lakes, inlaid stalactites and shining stalagmites decorate rooms with arabesques of crystal and alabaster. Wondrously fantastic are their names: “Abisso Ancona”, ”Sala dei 200”, ”Gran Canyon”, ”Sala delle Candeline”, ”Sala Bianca”, “Sala dell’Orsa” e “Sala dell’Infinito”.
It is also possible to visit St. Vittore’s Romanesque Abbey in the village nearby , or go up to Madonna of Frasassi’s Sanctuary.
