A well-known seaside resort in the region, Francavilla al Mare serves as the gateway to the mountain parks and the “Costa dei Trabocchi”, boasting a charming historic center. Just a few steps from the Church of Santa Maria Maggiore, one of the symbols of Francavilla al Mare, stands the Michetti Convent, also known as the “Cenacolo Dannunziono,” which for decades was a hub for cultural exchanges among artists and writers. During the World Skate Games, it will host the marathon passing through the Foro area, the heart of the city’s riviera.
